Hello

I get problems when Kenneth adding name to shapes in Asbose Diagram for python

code:

def create_visual_shape(shape_sn,shape_name_sn,page_id,xpos_sn,ypos_sn):

bpmn.getPages()
page = Page(page_id)
page.getShapes()
shape = Shape()
page= Page()

page = bpmn.getPages().getPage(page_id)

if shape_sn == "Start Event":
    print("Start Event")
    bpmn.addMaster(visiostencil, "Start Event")
    bpmn.addShape(xpos_sn, ypos_sn, "Start Event", page_id)
    page.getActiveShape().setName(shape_name_sn)

get the following:

goranpettersson@iMac Visual code v1 % /usr/local/bin/python3 “/Users/goranpettersson/Documents/Visual code v1/SNAPIV4.py”
First shape in page 11 ATF Suite Start With ID 11 0
Start Event

File “/Users/goranpettersson/Documents/Visual code v1/SNAPIV4.py”, line 233, in create_visual_shape
page.getActiveShape().setName(shape_name_sn)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

@Gope
Thanks for the sample code.
Please refer to the following code to set the name of the shape:

    shapeId = bpmn.addShape(xpos_sn, ypos_sn, "Start Event", page_id)
    shape = page.getShapes().getShape(shapeId)
    shape.setName(shape_name_sn)

Thanks.

Hello again Philip!

Thanks for the respond!

shapeId = bpmn.addShape(xpos_sn, ypos_sn, "Start Event", page_id)
shape = page.getShapes().getShape(shapeId)
shape.setName(shape_name_sn)

But how do you get the information of the Shape_id. I suppose it is created when the shape is created.

Hello!

Got it! Did not see the ShapeID in the first line of your example!

@Gope
Yes, We will obtain the shape ID when creating the shape.
In case you have further inquiries or may need any help in future, please let us know by posting a new thread in Aspose.Diagram’ forum.
Thanks.

The code works fine but no name is presented in the Visio file

the code

def create_visual_shape(shape_sn,shape_name_sn,page_id,xpos_sn,ypos_sn):

page= Page()
#bpmn.getPages()
#page = Page(page_id)
#page.getShapes()
shape = Shape()

page = bpmn.getPages().getPage(page_id)


if shape_sn == "Start Event":
    print("Start Event")
    #bpmn.addMaster(visiostencil, "Start Event")
    shapeId =bpmn.addShape(xpos_sn, ypos_sn, "Start Event", page_id)
    shape = page.getShapes().getShape(shapeId)
    shape.setName(shape_name_sn)
    #shape.setText("shape_name_sn")

shape.setName(shape_name_sn)
print ("The shapes name: ",shape.getName())

result:

The shapes name: If

@Gope
Please open Visio’s Developer Mode, then select the shape you want to inspect to view properties such as name, ID, and more.

If you want to set the text of a shape, please refer to the following code:

shape.getText().getValue().add(Cp(0))
shape.getText().getValue().add(Txt(“Test shape text”))
//set text font properties
shape.getChars().add(Char())
shape.getChars().get(0).setIX(0)
shape.getChars().get(0).getColor().setValue(“#FFFF00”)
shape.getChars().get(0).getSize().setValue(0.16)

Thanks.

I checked the stylesheet for the forms. No id or no name was set. I will try your code and respond.

Works fine!

Thanks for help!

The only reflection is that start and End shapes displays the text vertically

@Gope
If the text position is incorrect or exceeds the shape,
Please try to set shape’s text width or positon as the following code:

   shape.getTextXForm().getTxtWidth().setValue(shape.getXForm().getWidth().getValue())

Thanks.
