Hi,

I'm trying to automate the shape morphing function, which it seems is not supported by any API.
The issue I have is that the shape morphing is done using over 100 points. Currently, the only way to do that is manually picking the reference point and then the target. The user can pick all the points sequentially without having to click in the function window. The thing is that there is over 100 points to be clicked and if one is missed, the entire function is screwed.
What I thought I could do as a workaround is create a routine to pick the reference and target points to fill in the function panel as if a user was manually selecting the points. But it seems that the VBA selection doesn't populate the panel. Is there a way to mimic a mouse click on the points? or even better, is there a way to use the morphing tool in VBA?
