Does not the objects in a theme have to be defined, such as frame, title
window, menu bar, etc. It would seem to me that to set a theme for shapes,
you would have to define what shapes belong to the theme and have some
pre-determined method of defining whether the interior fills or the lines
adapt a color, etc. I do not believe that excel has a facility for just
using a theme to color an abstract group of shapes.

I can format shapes with RGB
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Test").Fill.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(128, 128, 128)
Is there a way to format a shape using themecolors in the same way you can
format a cell
With Range("A1").Interior
.ThemeColor = xlThemeColorAccent3
.TintAndShade = 0.799981688894314
End With
I have tried every variation of the code & syntax to no avail - could
someone give me an example of the code to do this please - thankyou in
anticipation
