Can I place 2 master objects of a Stencil at the same x,y position

[Gary]

I have created 2 or more master objects on a stencil. I want to place each
of the master objects from the stencil on a visio document at a given x,y
position. I wrote VBA code to adjust the x, y for the first object to line
up. It is not the same adjustment for the 2nd master object.

Can I adjust the creation of these master objects so that I can use a
constant x,y adjustment so I can place all these master object at the same
x,y position???

I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thank You,

Gary

Cells LocPinX and LocPinY determine the coordinates of the shape that
align with the shape's PinX and PinY.
Hence, when setting the shape's X and Y if you want this location to
be the shape's bottom left hand corner then set LocPinX and LocPinY to
0.

I have been trying to figure how to set the LocPinX and LocPinY cell.

I have a master object on a stencil, and I open the stencil using Visio and
selected the object and rt. click the object and select view and size &
position. I don't see the LocPinX and LocPinY, but I do see the PinX and
PinY. I changed this to 0 and 0. When I tried placing this master object
on my visio doc, there was not displacement change.

In the MS Knowledge base, I notice a Shape Transform windows which has the
LocPosX and LocPosY, but I can't find it in my visio appliciation when I open
the stencil up.

I am using 2003 Visio standard with sp2.

Can Someone Please help.

Thanks,

Gary

Select the shape, then from the menu select Window -> Show ShapeSheet
LocPinX and LocPinY are in the first section.
