Public API Changes in Aspose.Diagram 16.11.0

This document describes changes to the Aspose.Diagram API from version 6.8.0 to 16.11.0, that may be of interest to module/application developers. It includes not only new and updated public methods, but also a description of any changes in the behaviour behind the scenes in Aspose.Diagram.

Modify Properties of an ActiveX Control

Developers can retrieve an ActiveX control and then modify its properties. We have added ActiveXControl property in the Shape class. Please check this code example:

Java

 // load a Visio diagram

Diagram diagram = new Diagram("C:\\temp\\Drawing1.vsd");

// get a Visio page by name

Page page = diagram.getPages().getPage("Page-1");

// get a shape by ID

Shape shape = page.getShapes().getShape(1);

// get an ActiveX control

CommandButtonActiveXControl cbac = (CommandButtonActiveXControl)shape.getActiveXControl();

// set width of the command button control

cbac.setWidth(4);

// set height of the command button control

cbac.setHeight(4);

// set caption of the command button control

cbac.setCaption("Test Button");

// save diagram

diagram.save("C:\\temp\\Output.vsdx", SaveFileFormat.VSDX);

Insert a Text Shape in the Visio Diagram

Developers can insert a text shape in the Visio diagram using Aspose.Diagram API. Please check this code example:

Java

 // create a new diagram

Diagram diagram = new Diagram();

// set parameters

double PinX = 1, PinY = 1, Width = 1, Height = 1;

String text = "Test text";

// add text to a Visio page

diagram.getPages().get(0).addText(PinX, PinY, Width, Height, text);

// save diagram 

diagram.save("C:\\temp\\Output.vsdx", SaveFileFormat.VSDX);
