I got a small snippet of code that, from a list, copy's a chart and paste it as a metapicture to powerpoint - 1 chart/picture on its own slide.

My issue is, im not able to generate a code that resizes/re-position (center align) the pasted picture.

Would anyone be able to give me a pointer of how?

Heres the cope-snippet:

For x = LBound(arrGraphs) To UBound(arrGraphs)
Graphtobeprinted = arrGraphs(x)
fromsheet= arrSheets(x)

'Create new powerpoint dias (12=empty)
Set pptSld = pptPres.Slides.Add(x, 12)

'Copy chart
Sheets(fromsheet).Select
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(Graphtobeprinted).Activate
ActiveChart.ChartArea.Copy


'Paste chart
pptSld.Application.Activate
pptSld.Shapes.PasteSpecial DataType:=ppPasteEnhancedMetafile

'Resize and center/align
'???

Next

Thank you!!
Best

small modification (paste as a shape):

For x = LBound(arrGraphs) To UBound(arrGraphs)
Graphtobeprinted = arrGraphs(x)
fromsheet = arrSheets(x)

'Create new powerpoint dias (12=empty)
Set pptSld = pptPres.Slides.Add(x, 12)

'Copy chart
Sheets(fromsheet).Select 'needs to be made part of the array and refeered to as a variable
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(Graphtobeprinted).Activate
ActiveChart.ChartArea.Copy


'Paste chart
'pptSld.Application.Activate
Set pptShape = pptSld.Shapes.PasteSpecial(DataType:=ppPasteOLEObject, Link:=msoFalse)(1)

'Resize and center/align
'???
