publishng visio on web

[gigster99]

am using right click (format/behavior) to add details to visio objects (org
chart objects with information about their roles and responsibilities).

cannot get this method to work on a visio web page. Is it possible? Is there
such a thing as a visio server that would make advanced methods that run with
the visio client also work on a visio server?

The Visio web page output is effectively "read only" so you can't add/edit
data or change shape properties. But if you want to display data from a shape
as tooltip text on the web page, you can do that. Refer to this post:

Note that in steps 6/7 you can substitute any formula for the text string or
"=Comment" formula. This allows you to create tooltip text that contains
other shape-related data.

Final note: the save as web page function truncates tooltip text if it
exceeds approx. 50 characters so you can't stuff too much data into the
tooltip text.
