Parameters

Name	Required/Optional	Data type	Description
Increment	Required	Single	Specifies how far the shape is to be rotated horizontally, in degrees. A positive value rotates the shape clockwise; a negative value rotates it counterclockwise.

Example

This example duplicates shape one on myDocument, sets the fill for the duplicate, moves it 70 points to the right and 50 points up, and rotates it 30 degrees clockwise.

Set myDocument = ActivePresentation.Slides(1)

With myDocument.Shapes(1).Duplicate

    .Fill.PresetTextured msoTextureGranite

    .IncrementLeft 70

    .IncrementTop -50

    .IncrementRotation 30
