Visio 2010 Feature Request - Save as .design file or save as xaml
I think it would be a great feature for Visio 2010 to be able to directly
save a drawing as a Expression Design file. Visio can be much faster for getting basic designs started (expeciallly for those of us more familiar with Visio than Design), and then the file could be sent over to the Expression Design Team for further enhancements. How tough could this be to do since both Visio and Expression Design use vector graphics? At least we should be able to save a visio drawing as XAML by now. The add-in has been around for some time, but why should we have to use an add-in? This should be a direct feature! With all the MS push for Silverlight and WPF development enhancements and collaboration tools, I would think these features would be on top of the Visio Team's list of to-do's for Visio 2010! -- Try not. Do...or do not. There is no try. - Jedi Master Yoda ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
