Shape Property (PSObject)

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Overridable Property Shape As Object

'Usage
 
Dim instance As PSObject
Dim value As Object
 
instance.Shape = value
 
value = instance.Shape

public virtual object Shape {get; set;}

Property Value

Object containing the shape

Exception	Description
System.ArgumentException	Invalid object type specified; must be a valid type (GraphicsPath, Region, FarPoint.Win.Picture, or Bitmap)

This property is available at run time only.

This example shows the use of the property in customizing a shape to illustrate the use of the property for classes that inherit this property.
