There is provided a method for controlling a shape measuring apparatus which can achieve both trajectory correcting capability and control stability. A stylus tip is moved along a scanning path while controlling the stylus tip so as to keep an amount of deflection of a probe to a workpiece to be a reference amount of deflection. A movement instruction for the probe is generated according to a combined velocity vector V represented by the following expression:combined velocity vector2,
