Code on Workbook_Open effecting initial view of images on worksheets

Question

I have set Worksheet.EnableCalculation property to manual for a number of sheets on opening the workbook. In the process I also change the size of 2 shapes on each of these sheet (Make one image big and one small). These shapes also have macros assigned to them. To add more confusion, one sheet can be fine on opening the workbook and the rest not. The sheet that is OK is not always the same sheet and I can not work out how that sheets differs at that time from the others. It is not that it is active at time of saving.

This works fine but when viewing the sheets on opening the workbook these shapes as well as all other shapes on the sheet (which are also used as macro buttons) appear to have moved position on the sheet (up and left). However, by just zooming in/out the buttons appear back in their correct position.

I have added code to set the zoom during the Workbook_Open event to set the zoom but that does not stop this anomaly appearing. Putting the zoom into Workbook_SheetActivate also does not effect the issue

It does not have any obvious effect on the workbook and is not an issue once the zoom has been applied manually to each effected sheet but it does not look good when it opens.

I didn't solve anything, just made a more concise version of your code.

Answer 2

Ok, not exactly solved the issue but have got the workaround to hide the problem.

I have added a second zoom in the code.

It looks like when actioning the zoom coding it only affected the sheets that were not already set on the zoom value which is why it appeared random to which sheets were opening with the screen looking OK. When changing it twice it effectively results in them all being 'changed' and hence resolving the screen updating glitch.

It will work for now but appreciate that it is just a bandaid.
