Property MinCharactersBefore As Long
Member of StructHyphenationSettings
The MinCharactersBefore property returns or specifies the minimum number of characters (including spaces) that must appear in the hot-zone before a hyphen. For example, if MinCharactersBefore is set to 3, the only words that receive hyphenation are the ones that would have at least three characters before the hyphen.
• |
For the MinCharactersBefore property to work, the
StructHyphenationSettings.UseAutomaticHyphenation property must be set
to True.
|
The following VBA example enables automatic hyphenation for the selected text object, specifying a minimum of 2 characters to be left on a line or carried to the next line following a hyphen.
Sub Test() |
With ActiveShape.Text.HyphenationSettings |
.UseAutomaticHyphenation = True |
.MinCharactersBefore = 2 |
.MinCharactersAfter = 2 |
End With |
End Sub |
