WrdParagraphFormat

Get or Set the Paragraph Format in Word

Description

WrdParagraphFormat can be used to get and set the font in Word for the text to be inserted.

Usage

WrdParagraphFormat(wrd = DescToolsOptions("lastWord"))
WrdParagraphFormat(wrd) <- value

Arguments

value

a list defining the paragraph format. This can contain any combination of: LeftIndent, RightIndent, SpaceBefore, SpaceBeforeAuto, SpaceAfter, SpaceAfterAuto, LineSpacingRule, Alignment, WidowControl, KeepWithNext, KeepTogether, PageBreakBefore, NoLineNumber, Hyphenation, FirstLineIndent, OutlineLevel, CharacterUnitLeftIndent, CharacterUnitRightIndent, CharacterUnitFirstLineIndent, LineUnitBefore, LineUnitAfter and/or MirrorIndents. The possible values of the arguments are found in the Word constants with the respective name.
The alignment for example can be set to wdAlignParagraphLeft, wdAlignParagraphRight, wdAlignParagraphCenter and so on.
Left alignment with indentation would be set as:
list(Alignment=wdConst$wdAlignParagraphLeft, LeftIndent=42.55).

wrd

the pointer to a word instance. Can be a new one, created by GetNewWrd() or an existing one, created by GetCurrWrd(). Default is the last created pointer stored in DescToolsOptions("lastWord").
