Calculation in Visio

[Terence]

Hi, I would like to do the link budget by using Visio. Would someone please
help me to slove the problem about how to pass the output value to serval
shapes? Since I need to calculate the whole path loss. Thank you.

If ShapeA (sheet ID = 1) has custom property "Cost" and ShapeB (Sheet ID =
2) has custom property "Units", then ShapeC can have a custom property with
the ShapeSheet formula =GUARD(Sheet.1!Prop.Cost * Sheet.2!Prop.Units).

Only caveats are that you need to find the sheet IDs (use Format / Specila
in developer mode) of each shape, and you have to enter the formula using
the ShapeSheet window.

you can add user or custom properties to shapes and then store the values in
there.
