What's the difference in how the "linking" in an off-page connector shape is set up as compared to a shape that has had a hyperlink added to it? Can I add the 2-way linking that is built into the off-page connector to another shape -- such as the Predefined process shape? The off-page connector shape is paried with another off-page connector on another page. They can be set up so that the text is synchronized between the two and double-clicking on either one will cause a jump to the other one. I would like to make the Predefined Process shape behave like that. How would I go about doing that, if it's even possible? I am trying to create a set of top-down flowcharts. The highest level would be just 5-6 "parent" shapes with hyperlinks to a more detailed flowchart for that process. If there is a better way to accomplish that, I would appreciate suggestions. Thanks PS: What are the microsoft.public.visio.developer.xxx newsgroups for? Would one of them be a better place to post this question? Thanks -- Using Visio Standard 2002 on Win 2000
You can add the behavior to your shape. I just copied a formula in a cell of the off-page connector shape...you can too: .. Open the ShapeSheet for your custom shape. .. Find the Events section .. In the EventDrop section, add this formula: RUNADDONWARGS("OPC","/CMD=1") that should get you going. -- Hope this helps, Chris Roth Visio MVP "LurfysMa" <invalid@invalid.invalid> wrote in message news:ktvge1pcfh4n610hvuf4dqk9ulughjisu2@4ax.com... > What's the difference in how the "linking" in an off-page connector > shape is set up as compared to a shape that has had a hyperlink added > to it? > > Can I add the 2-way linking that is built into the off-page connector > to another shape -- such as the Predefined process shape? > > The off-page connector shape is paried with another off-page connector > on another page.
