Add pages in visio with aspose python java

Aspose.Diagram Product Family
1

Hello

I have purchased aspose.diagram library.

How i try i cannot add new pages to an existing visio document.

I can create new vidio files, change name of active page.

I have tried lots of methods and combinations:

bpmn.getPages().add(sida)

But get this error:

bpmn.getPages().add(sida)
TypeError: No matching overloads found for com.aspose.diagram.PageCollection.add(str), options are:
public int com.aspose.diagram.PageCollection.add(com.aspose.diagram.Page)

Please help me!

Another question about my license:

I am using a Mac.

The following code:

import the License class

from asposediagram.api import License
license = License()
license.setLicense(“Aspose.Diagram.Product.Family.lic”)

Is the license active?

Best Regards

Göran Pettersson

Create the Visual file

Create a filer called SNBPMN.vsdx from a template called BPMN.vsdx

Teh file BPMN.vsdx is a template file that contains the BPMN shapes and a process flow template.

def create_visual_file():
bpmn.save(“SNBPMN.vsdx”, SaveFileFormat.VSDX)
# end of function

Create a new page in Visio

Create a new page in the file SNBPMN.vsdx

The page is created from the template BPMN.vsdx

def create_new_page(newpage):

    print (newpage)

   # Create a new page
    # Set the name of the new page
    bpmn.getActivePage().setName(newpage)

    # Add the new page to the collection
    bpmn.getPages().add(newpage) # gives the error

    # Save the Visio diagram
    bpmn.save("SNBPMN.vsdx", SaveFileFormat.VSDX)

def create_visual_shape():

bpmn.addMaster(visiostencil, "Start Event")

snbm = create_visual_file()
test =“rrrr”
snbmn = create_new_page(test)
snbmn = create_visual_shape()

@Gope
It looks like you’ve set a pagename , which is a string. Then, you’ve added this string to the page collection. This is the reason for the error.

Please add a page to the collection, for example,

    newPage = Page()
    newPage.setName("new page") //set page's name
    newPage.setID(100) //set page's id
    diagram.getPages().add(newPage) //add page to collection
