Is there any way to select "pin" in this method?: 

Application.ActiveWindow.Page.Shapes.ItemFromID(1).AutoConnect

I want to connect two shapes and then I want to connect third one onto created connection, but not at beginning, I need to connect it onto fourth pin. This is what I have: enter image description here
This is what I want to have: enter image description here

To get center of shape we have to use this lines.

Set object = AppVisio.ActiveWindow.Page.Shapes.ItemFromID(objectId)
connectingXfrom = object .CellsU("PinX").Result("in")
connectingYfrom = object .CellsU("PinY").Result("in")

The center of shape object is at point C[connectingXfrom, connectingYfrom]

Next two lines move first point of connector to point P[connectingXfrom, connectingYfrom]

Application.ActiveWindow.Page.Shapes.ItemFromID(connectorShapeId).CellsSRC(1, 4, 0).FormulaU = connectingXfrom
Application.ActiveWindow.Page.Shapes.ItemFromID(connectorShapeId).CellsSRC(1, 4, 1).FormulaU = connectingYfrom

If we want to start connecting from connection 1 but close to object 2, we need to do:

connectingXfrom = connectingXfrom - someDistanceValue
  • someDistanceValue can be for example 1.5
  • objectId is Id of Object 2 shape
  • connectorShapeId is Id of connection 2 shape.
