Understanding Shape.SetAngle() results

tvv91 · February 5, 2019, 11:21am

Diagram Shape object has SetAngle method for rotate shape. I’ts work, but I’m not understood logic of this work. For example, next code:
shape.SetAngle(90);
means that shape was rotated 90 degrees right. But result next:result.zip (15.7 KB)

I’m try rotate shape in Visio right to 90 degrees, and then open file under debug, and in shape.XForm.Angle value was -1.57…

Thanks for your inquiry.

Shape.SetAngle() method accepts the value in radian where 1 Degree = 0.0174533 Radian and 90 Degree = 1.57 Radian. You may specify angle values in radian and in case you still face any issue, please feel free to let us know.
