I am interested in this product and after reading the documentation I have noticed it does not support input and output data from anything other than Visio.
What I would like to do is:
produce network diagrams from data that I have stored locally, so maybe provide an input using XML and have this package generate a Visio diagram and allow users to export as Visio.
allow users to create diagrams and be able to store the data as XML or extract the data somehow to store locally.
You can create a Visio drawing from scratch and include data from external sources. Kindly send us an XML sample and expected Visio drawing. We will investigate and share our findings with you. Please also refer to this help topic: Working with SolutionXML Elements
Here is a sample of my xml which i would like to turn it into a visio diagram or turn a visio diagram into xml in this format. I am using host ip or a network. I woudl liek to know how to create a flow from the xml tag src and dst

</response>You can use System.Xml DLL reference (.NET framework) to retrieve data from the XML file, and then you may store XML keys and values into the Visio drawing in the form of SolutionXML elements. Aspose.Diagram API does not work with XML data files. Please take help from the Microsoft MSDN website and this is a simple help topic: [View and Extract XML Data]
I dont think you understood my question. I am trying to create a diagram using data I have. I can loop through my data but I cannot seem to insert the required shapes and connectors. Below is my code which only draws a single connector on the page.

the stencil i am using contains the shapes
Router
Switch
Firewall
Load Balancer
LAN
Cloud
Server
Connector
It doesn’t seem to be adding my custom shapes in the stencil.
I managed to get the shape to appear using a different method of adding the stencil shape. im not sure how to correctly connect the the flows xR1 to xR2 using the connector, if you can please help with this.

In order to replicate your scenario in our environment, we require your source VDX drawing Network Connectivity.vdx which you are using in the code. Furthermore, we can see an evaluation watermark in your output VSDX drawing. Please note, the evaluation version can read only the first ten shapes of the first drawing page and also insert an evaluation watermark in the output documents.
You can get a 30 day temporary license from the purchase portal and its option is available in step 5. You will see a button with caption Get a Temp License in step 5 of the purchase portal. A temporary license is a time-restricted full license that lets you test every aspect of API before buying it. Please see how to apply license in the following help topic: Apply License to Aspose.Diagram for Java API

So i have decreased the xml to have 2 rows so in theory there should only be 6 objects on the page. i still can’t figure out why this does not work page.connectShapesViaConnectorIndex(shape1, xR1, shape2, xR2, connecter1Id); even a copy paste from the example it throws error on that function.
We managed to replicate the problem of not being able to connect shapes with connection point indexes. There is no connection point on the target shape and we have added a connection point, but it does not work. It has been logged under the ticket ID DIAGRAMJAVA-50566 in our bug tracking system. We have linked your post to this ticket and will keep you informed regarding any available updates.
@imran.rafique it is very important for us for this feature to be working - “be able to draw network diagrams”, if the custom shape does not work can you show me how to connect built in visio shapes with routers, switches, firewalls?
How soon can this bug be fixed, this product is very critical to our solution?
Can i as how would paid support work i have noticed your responses are out of office hours for us as we are based in UK?
Below is code using visio network shapes, i can’t seem to figure out why the connection does not connect together.

out put in zip, you can see the connector just goes up and right even though up is not defined and the right does not connect.
Example Stencil.zip (264.1 KB)
There is an error while parsing your XML data file. We have written a small code example to connect shapes and find that the connecting lines are invisible. When we open the output VSDX drawing in the Microsoft Visio application and slightly change the position of any shape, then the connecting lines are visible. This problem has been logged under the ticket ID DIAGRAMJAVA-50567 in our bug tracking system. We have linked your post to this ticket and will keep you informed regarding any available updates.
