Hi
Before I'm going to start a new project, I want to ask if it's actually
possible with MS Visio.
Is it possible to generate a Set of Shapes and to add some Logic and
additional DataFields to each shape?
For example we've got two shapes:
Shape A: name, adress, type
Shape B: name, path
The Path from Shape B is calculated from name and adress of Shape A. Is this
possible? What is, if Shape B is drawn first, and then Shape A. Shape B path
must be empty and when Shape A is filled out, Shape B needs to be updated to
get it's data.
What's with multiple Instances of a Shape? E.G. if I've got two Objects from
Shape A on the workspace, I need to tell each B-Shape from which A-Shape it
gets it's data from.
Another interesting fact is updating the ShapeTemplates. When the Shape
definitions are updated, is it possible to add this updated information to
older visio sheets which where created with older template versions?
I think these are the main questions.
Thank you for answering
Martin
