 Remarks

The component allows importing Visio 2003 XML Drawing files (*.vdx) into FlowChartX. The standard Visio flowchart shapes, as well as most of the UML and Database entity shapes are imported to their closest representation in FlowChartX. The Visio connectors are imported as FlowChartX Arrow objects, preserving the relationship between the connected nodes. In addition, most of the attributes of Visio objects such as text, text formatting, fill and line colors and styles are preserved. The component raises an event for each imported box to let you set the box' shape if it is not recognized by FlowChartX or if you need to set a different shape.

To determine how many pages are there in the Visio document and import only a single page, create a VisioImporter instance and call the GetPageCount and ImportPage methods. All pages of a Visio diagram can be imported at once by calling the ImportAllPages method, which lays out the pages as set in PagesPerRow.
