Excel sheets may contain many types of embedded shapes, including images, graphical elements, controls, and comments.

The XLShape abstract class contains information that is common to all shape types, including the shape's location (Sheet, Row, Column, Rectangle, Rotation), the type of border drawn around the shape (LineWidth, LineColor, LineStyle), the Rotation applied to the shape, and Hyperlink information.

The XLPictureShape class derives from XLShape and is used to embed images in sheets.
