Including stencil in drawing
I am using Visio in an ASP.NET application. One things that I needed to do
was to create my own stencil, which the user will use to create his own drawings. I need a way to include the stencil (VSX file) into the drawing file itself (VSD or VDX file), so that the user can simply open the drawing file and start adding shapes immediately. This would eliminate the need of having to open the stencil as well. How can I incorporate the stencil into the drawing? Thanks! |

If you have a template then save the template (with the stencil open) with the workspace enabled. Then when saving the drawing save with workspace. However, there is no error checking on this, if the stencil is missing then it just won't open it. If you open it yourself in code then at least you can check that it exists and bring up an error condition if not. -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd.
