Read Inherited Fill Data of a Shape & ActiveX Controls Addition into Visio Drawing using Java

What's New in this Release?

Aspose team is pleased to announce the new release of Aspose.Diagram for Java 6.8.0. This new version includes a variety of new features, enhancements and bug fixes. Using the recent version or higher, developers would be able to automatically set the color visibility of the layers and add any supported ActiveX-control in the Visio diagram. Users might also extract the values of inherited fill data for the manipulation purposes. In the Microsoft Visio, layers can be created in a page by using the layer properties dialog. The concept of layers reduces the workload and gives more control over the complex diagrams. A single checkbox against a specific layer can show or hide the color of the multiple shapes. Developers can now achieve this feature by using Aspose.Diagram API. Microsoft Visio ActiveX-controls are the objects that users can interact with to enter or manipulate data. For example, they may add a CheckBox control to the drawing so that users can turn an option on and off. Users may select a control from the developer tab and drag to create the control directly on the Visio drawing just like an ActiveX control. Developers can now achieve this feature by using Aspose.Diagram API. Users can drag and drop an ActiveX control and manipulate like other Visio shapes. A Visio shape inherits values from the master and parent style. The benefits of inheritance are improved performance, reduced memory usage and a smaller file size. Aspose team has added support for reading inherited data from the Visio shapes. Aspose team auto port Aspose.Diagram for .NET to Java to give developers perfectly same features on both platforms, so this version also incorporates the bug fixes and enhancements from its equivalent .NET version. This release includes several enhanced features and bug fixes as listed below

• Add support of inserting ActiveX controls in the Visio Page.
• Add support to set color checkbox of the layer.
• Can't copy a Visio page in the VSDM.
• The incomplete rendering of an OLE chart when converting a VSDX to PDF.
