Code:
'      [COLOR=#ff0000] try replacing this line[/COLOR]
      aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size = Replace(aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size, 40, 25)
'       [COLOR=#ff0000]with these lines[/COLOR]
        With aShape
            .TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size = Replace(aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size, 40, 25)

Re: Vba code to replace and position text box in powerpoint

Thanks for the reply. It works very well . Actually in some of my Text placeholder there is some additional spaces that is not being deleted to the left AND right of my TEXT.

I want my TEXT inside textholder to be autofit without any spaces.

I am trying to use the below code but it doesn't work . Please help with that.

Sub changeFont()
For Each aSlide In ActivePresentation.Slides
For Each aShape In aSlide.Shapes
If aShape.Type = msoTextBox Then
If aShape.TextFrame.HasText Then
If aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Name = "Franklin Gothic Demi" Then
If aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size = 10 Then
With aShape
.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size = Replace(aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size, 10, 25)
.Top = 23
.Left = 44
.Height = 44
.WordWrap = True
End With


End If
End If
End If


End If
Next
Next
End Sub

It would be grateful if you could please help with that.

Re: Vba code to replace and position text box in powerpoint

Actually in some of my Text placeholder there is some additional spaces that is not being deleted to the left AND right of my TEXT
Code:
aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = Trim(aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text)


same code, avoiding repetition
Code:
With aShape.TextFrame.TextRange
    .Text = Trim(.Text)
End With

Hi Yongle

I am currently using this code to establish . However what I have just discovered that some of the text in text placeholder has some indentation which should be

Before text = 0 cm
Special = None
Alignment = Left


Sub changeFont()
For Each aSlide In ActivePresentation.Slides
For Each aShape In aSlide.Shapes
If aShape.Type = msoTextBox Then
If aShape.TextFrame.HasText Then
If aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Name = "Franklin Gothic Demi" Then
If aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size = 10 Then
With aShape
.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size = Replace(aShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size, 10, 25)
With aShape.TextFrame.TextRange
.Text = Trim(.Text)
End With

.Top = 23
.Left = 44
.Height = 44


End With


End If
End If
End If


End If
Next
Next
End Sub


Please help me to incorporate the same in this subroutine to establish the same.

Re: Vba code to replace and position text box in powerpoint

1. You asked for
"Vba code to replace and position text box in powerpoint" - which i provided


2. Next you ask
"actually in some of my Text placeholder there is some additional spaces that is not being deleted to the left AND right of my TEXT" - which I provided
3. Now you ask
"however what I have just discovered that some of the text in text placeholder has some indentation which should be Before text = 0 cm, Special = None, Alignment = Left"

Suggest you start a new thread for latest request - I am busy and perhaps someone else will look at a new thread
