Thanks team for the prompt response and sharing the code snippet.
From the given code, the relation between shapes to shapes(1st Point), I am able to however the control and application relationship is still not coming up (2nd and 3rd points). Am I missing something.

Thanks in advance

Team do we have any update on this.If you kindly let me know how can we get the Container shapes and the shapes inside it to start with. For example a swimlane has which shapes inside it.

A sample code will really be helpful.

Thanks,

There is no particular information in the source Visio file that you have shared. However, you can get Shape information according to its name. About finding out which shapes are present in a respective Swimlanes, please try this sample code:

var srcPage = diagram.Pages.GetPage("Page-1");
var shape = srcPage.Shapes.GetShape("Pool / Lane");
ShapeCollection childs = shape.Shapes;

Thanks for the quick response but this code is not giving me the right output:
However , The this piece of code can be used with some text cleaning and reference id

var test = vdxDiagram.Pages[0].Shapes[i].Layout.Relationships.Ufe.F;
Console.WriteLine(“aspose—” + test);
Please try the above code and let me know

By the way can team help me to tell how can I identify the type of Gateway like Parallel, Inclusive etc. from the shape if it is a Gateway.
Similarly how can I get kind of event type.
This would be really helpful. Thanks in advance.

OK.
I am using Aspose Visio DLL from Visual Studio Nuget.
Is there any subscription needed for it. Will it get expired. What is the way of renewal ?

Also … is there any way I can know what kind of Gateway type and event type.

Is there any update. and
if team can help me in this question atleast:
What is the way I can read the shapes inside a groupshape in visio . Please

Prasenjeet

read the shapes inside a groupshape in visio, I have tried Shape.Shapes for the group but count is coming as zero all the time.

Other thing is that I am trying to get the connected shapes for text annotation.
Tried two methods, 1) shape.GluedShapes(GluedShapesFlags.GluedShapesAll2D, “”, null).Count()
and 2) shape.IsConnected(shp). No way I am able to find a solution. Attaching the sample Visio for your refernce. Any help will be highly appreciated. Based on these answers. we will decide to procure the license.

Thanks,

Regarding your gateway requirements, please try following code:

//gateway
Shape shape = diagram.Pages[0].Shapes.GetShape(340);
String gatewayType = shape.Props.GetProp("BpmnGatewayType").Value.Val;
Console.WriteLine(gatewayType);
//event             
foreach (Shape child in diagram.Pages[0].Shapes)
{                
 if (child.Name.IndexOf("Event") != -1)
 {                   
   Console.WriteLine(child.Name);                
 }            
}

We are checking for this scenario and will share our feedback with you shortly.

Thanks Team, Please help me with the

2. the connected shapes for text annotation.
I would be having an important demo with the stakeholder

Thanks in advance,

We have checked your sample file and we could see that shape432 and shape401 is connected in the sample file. Please try using following code snippet:

Shape shape = diagram.Pages[0].Shapes.GetShape(432);
Shape sh = diagram.Pages[0].Shapes.GetShape(401);
long[] In_connectedShapeIds = shape.ConnectedShapes(ConnectedShapesFlags.ConnectedShapesIncomingNodes, null);
long[] Out_connectedShapeIds = shape.ConnectedShapes(ConnectedShapesFlags.ConnectedShapesOutgoingNodes, null);
Console.WriteLine("Shape ID: " + shape.ID + "\t Name: " + shape.Name + "\t\t Incoming nodes count: " + In_connectedShapeIds.Length + "\t\t Outgoing nodes count: " + Out_connectedShapeIds.Length);            
Console.WriteLine(In_connectedShapeIds[0]);            
bool isConn = shape.IsConnected(sh);            
Console.WriteLine(isConn);
21

I have done that already but this is not giving any information for Text Annotation connection . Both 401 and 432 are both tasks. but we cannot find text annotation. Is there a way we can find that
