Does anyone know where I could get a code example of a Visio import?

Stoyan,

Thank you for the example. However I am unable to get it to work. When I try and import a .vdx file I get a blank screen. I have placed the VisioExport.vxt in the project and bin directories but it still will not import. ???

An XML attribute that the importer considers mandatory (page\unit) is missing from that file, and the importer just exits. We have changed this to use default units when the attribute is missing, and the page imports ok. This change will be available in Flowchart.NET 5.

However the importer still does not recognize any of the electrical symbols used in the drawing, so they are imported as rectangles. You will need to handle the VisioExporter.BoxImported event and map the imported Visio shapes to your custom Flowchart.NET shapes.
