VBA code: Auto change shape size based on specified cell value in Excel
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
If Target.Row = 2 And Target.Column = 1 Then
Call SizeCircle("Oval 2", Val(Target.Value))
End If
End Sub
Sub SizeCircle(Name As String, Diameter)
Dim xCenterX As Single
Dim xCenterY As Single
Dim xCircle As Shape
Dim xDiameter As Single
On Error GoTo ExitSub
xDiameter = Diameter
If xDiameter > 10 Then xDiameter = 10
If xDiameter < 1 Then xDiameter = 1
Set xCircle = ActiveSheet.Shapes(Name)
With xCircle
xCenterX = .Left + (.Width / 2)
xCenterY = .Top + (.Height / 2)
.Width = Application.CentimetersToPoints(xDiameter)
.Height = Application.CentimetersToPoints(xDiameter)
.Left = xCenterX - (.Width / 2)
.Top = xCenterY - (.Height / 2)
End With
ExitSub:
End SubNote: In the code, “Oval 2” is the shape name you will change its size. And Row = 2, Column = 1 means that the size of shape “Oval 2” will be changed with the value in A2. Please change them as you need.
For auto resizing multiple shapes based on different cell values, please apply the below VBA code.
VBA code: Auto resize multiple shapes based on different specified cells' value in Excel
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim xAddress As String
On Error Resume Next
If Target.CountLarge = 1 Then
xAddress = Target.Address(0, 0)
If xAddress = "A1" Then
Call SizeCircle("Oval 1", Val(Target.Value))
ElseIf xAddress = "A2" Then
Call SizeCircle("Smiley Face 3", Val(Target.Value))
ElseIf xAddress = "A3" Then
Call SizeCircle("Heart 2", Val(Target.Value))
End If
End If
End Sub
Sub SizeCircle(Name As String, Diameter)
Dim xCenterX As Single
Dim xCenterY As Single
Dim xCircle As Shape
Dim xDiameter As Single
On Error GoTo ExitSub
xDiameter = Diameter
If xDiameter > 10 Then xDiameter = 10
If xDiameter < 1 Then xDiameter = 1
Set xCircle = ActiveSheet.Shapes(Name)
With xCircle
xCenterX = .Left + (.Width / 2)
xCenterY = .Top + (.Height / 2)
.Width = Application.CentimetersToPoints(xDiameter)
.Height = Application.CentimetersToPoints(xDiameter)
.Left = xCenterX - (.Width / 2)
.Top = xCenterY - (.Height / 2)
End With
ExitSub:
End SubNotes:
1) In the code, “Oval 1”, “Smiley Face 3” and “Heart 3” are the shapes' name you will change their sizes automatically. And A1, A2 andA3 are the cells which values you will auto resize shapes based on.
2) If you want to add more shapes, please add lines "ElseIf xAddress = "A3" Then" and "Call SizeCircle("Heart 2", Val(Target.Value))" above the first "End If" line in the code. And change the cell address and shape name based on your needs.
3. Press Alt + Q keys simultaneously to close the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window.
From now on, when you change the value in cell A2, the size of shape Oval 2 will be changed automatically. See screenshot:
Or change the values in cell A1, A2 and A3 to resize the corresponding shapes "Oval 1", "Smiley Face 3" and "Heart 3" automatically. See screenshot:
Note: The shape size will no longer change when the cell value is greater than 10.
