Is it possible to show shape data next to the object?

... Hey John -- Must be some other criteria for Std vs Pro. I have the indicated dll file, but I'm only running the Std version. Wapperdude "John... Visio MVP" wrote: "Crrucial" wrote in message ... Then, it is very strange that I do not have the option to add data graphic. I ran the Visio setup again and enabled all components. Still no luck to fix this problem. The DATA menu has only 3 items SHAPE DATA, INSERT DATA SOLUTIONS and REPORTS. Select a shape, Select Shape Data window from the View menu, right click the Shape Data window.

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -- SOFTWARE -- Microsoft -- Office -- 12.0 -- Visio There should be a filed labeled Edition. John... Visio MVP |

Bingo! Sure would have been easier if Visio retained the version info in the

Don't know if you ever managed to get this to work, but, for V2007, standard,
it's still possible, but takes more steps. Once you've created your shape data, the adventure begins. 1.) With your shape selected, go to menu barInsertFieldShape Data. This should plunk your data, or some of it, right smack dab in the center of your shape. 2.) Open the shapesheet (right click your shapeShow Shapesheet) 3.) Right click in the shapesheet, select Insert Section, and choose both Controls and Text Transform. 4.) Edit the Controls Section: a.) Change the X value cell from Width*0 to Width*1 b.) Change the Y value cell from Height*0 to Height*0.5. This places the control on the shape's right side, centered vertically. You can place it anywhere you wish. This is just initial setting. When the shape is placed, you can drag it around. 5.) Edit the Text Fields section. This was created when you did InsertFieldsShape Data. In the value cell, you'll want to enter all of your shape data definitions that you want displayed. It'll look something like: Prop.ReferenceDesignator&CHAR(10)&Prop.Model. This example will show the data for both the ReferenceDesignator and Model values. 6.) Edit the Text Transform section a.) TxtPinX should become: Controls.Row_1 b.) TxtPinY should become: Controls.Row_1.Y This slaves your textbox to the control pin and allows dragging. c.) You can play with the TxtLocPinX and Y entries. Perhaps setting TxtWidth*0. 7.) A nice feature to add: in the Events Section, EventDblClick: enter DOCMD(1312). This will bring up the shape data entry form when you double click the shape. This should get you started.

I added this information to shape data, but how can make this data appear on the diagram? |
