How do I increment a flowchart version control number in Vision?

[Joann]

How can I automatically increment a flowchart version control number each
time a flow chart is changed?

 

[DC Kelley]

Create a property (say in a tile block on some known single place for the
entire drawing or page) and store a string or int there, incrementing it
each time as needed.

As DC mentioned, you can use a custom property/Shape Data that is attached
to the page or the drawing file.

If you right click on a page that has nothing selected, the shapesheet you
will see is the Page shapesheet. You can add a Customp Property Section to
that shapesheet.

If you open the Drawing Explorer and right click on the drawing name in the
Drawing Explorer, you will open a shapesheet to the document. You can add a
Customp Property Section to that shapesheet.
