Adds a connection point to the current geometry.

Syntax

expression.AddConnectionPoint(sAngle, sX, sY);

expression - A variable that represents a ApiGeometry class.

Parameters

Name	Required/Optional	Data type	Default	Description
sAngle	Required	string		The angle of the connection point.
sX	Required	string		The X position.
sY	Required	string		The Y position.

Returns

boolean

Example

Creates adjustable geometry with guides and connection points for a presentation.

• Code
• Result

// Displays adjustment value and applies custom geometry to shape.
let presentation = Api.GetPresentation();
let slide = presentation.GetSlideByIndex(0);
let customGeometry = Api.CreateCustomGeometry();
customGeometry.AddAdj("adj1", 25000);
customGeometry.SetAdjValue("adj1", 30000);
customGeometry.AddGuide("x1", "*/", "adj1", "w", "100000");
customGeometry.SetTextRect("x1", "0", "w", "h");
customGeometry.AddConnectionPoint("0", "hc", "0");
let path = customGeometry.AddPath();
path.SetStroke(true);
path.SetFill("norm");
path.MoveTo("l", "t");
path.LineTo("r", "t");
path.LineTo("r", "b");
path.LineTo("l", "b");
path.LineTo("x1", "hd2");
path.Close();
let fill = Api.CreateSolidFill(Api.CreateRGBColor(100, 150, 200));
let stroke = Api.CreateStroke(36000, Api.CreateSolidFill(Api.CreateRGBColor(50, 75, 100)));
let shape = Api.CreateShape("rect", 100 * 36000, 100 * 36000, fill, stroke);
shape.SetGeometry(customGeometry);
shape.GetDocContent().GetElement(0).AddText("Adj value: " + customGeometry.GetAdjValue("adj1"));
shape.SetPosition(1500000, 1500000);
slide.AddObject(shape);
