API reference / Common / Engine types / ShapeGroupProperties

Interface: ShapeGroupProperties

A group shape's visual properties (a:grpSpPr, CT_GroupShapeProperties): the group's a:xfrm — both its placement and the child coordinate space (a:chOff / a:chExt) the descendants are laid out in — plus its fill and effects.

The placement half sits alongside the child mapping (rather than on the node) so a group's spPr-equivalent resolves as one unit, like every other kind's; place_in reads both halves to place the group and derive the space its children lay out in.

Properties

Property	Description
transform ShapeTransform | null	a:xfrm placement — where the group box sits and how big it is (its rotation/flip). None is unspecified. The child mapping below scales the child space onto this box.
childOffset ShapePoint | null	a:chOff — origin of the child coordinate space.
childExtents ShapeExtents | null	a:chExt — extent of the child coordinate space; children's coordinates are scaled from this onto the node transform's extents.
fill PaintFill | null	The group fill applied to descendants that use grpFill.
effects PaintEffectList | null	a:effectLst.
scene3d PaintScene3d | null	a:scene3d.
