Hi Scott for some files i get the attached box as well.Can this also be overridden.
One more thing. For each building i have the relevant floors in folders. So can i have this macro visio file in a folder. Can it scan all folders within the root folder and put all the jpg's in 1 folder with relevant folder names.So when i send then i can zip then individually or the whole folder please...
As i have the visio files into the jpg they ae not so clear when they are zoomed. I think its because of the computer icons resolution. Can that be made with high resolution

Regarding your three dialog boxes (from top to bottom):

1. The first one apparently has to do with some of the shapes on the page (not our seat position master). It would seem that if you click yes and update them that it wouldn't ask again. Is that true?
   
2. I'm not sure the reason for the second dialog. When does this one appear? Does it appear for each of the files that the program opens or just certain ones? Does it happen every time?
3. The shape numbering  dialog is a result of the auto-number option on each page. If you're finished adding shapes, you can turn off the auto-number option on each page and this message shouldn't appear.

I'm sure it's possible to process files in and into separate directories but I'm not clear what you're looking for. Why don't you attach a screen shot of the directory structure you have in mind and indicate again where you want the images to be put. You might ask this as a separate question unless this is what you meant in the first place for this question (I thought you wanted everything in one directory for this question).

The biggest problem with the screen resolution of the jpg images is that the icons are so small to start with. By the time you zoom in to be able to read them, they get pixelated and fuzzy. Why don't you experiment with saving pages in other image formats to see whether they look any better when they're blown up so severely. You can also try saving jpg images at 100% quality instead of the default of 75% (the setting is on the jpg quality dialog after you select save as jpg).

1.  This box comes on every open of the visio page.
2. It apears after the first box.
3. Ok
How can i change the settings to 100% quality.
 
I have a root folder as
D:\Visio Plans
 
within this i have a lot of folders as
GTY
HYE
HRE
GAW
So when i have the visio macro in the D:\Visio Plans. And run the macro all the folders need to be scanned and the same folder names have to be created into a folder called 'Visio Jpg"
 

1. I'm not sure I can help wtih this one other than to suggest you remove whatever shapes are in need of being updated. It's probably the intelligent wall shapes you have on some pages. Try replacing all of them with plain lines and that may solve the problem.
2. Presumably this will stop appearing if you remove all the intelligent wall shapes.

It will take me a while to figure out how to traverse the subdirectories. I haven't done it before but will try to get to it this week.

Ok Scott

Ok Scott

Any help scott. On instructing the macro to scan all folders and place then in 1 folder.

Creating a tooltip involves editing the shapesheet for a shape. Every Visio object -- the shapes, the pages and even the Visio document itself -- has a shapesheet, which is a spreadsheet-like object that contains the data that drives the behavior of the shape.

Creating a tooltip requires modifying the shapesheet for an object. I've adapted the instructions below from this article (from a blog written by Visio developers at Microsoft):
    http://blogs.msdn.com/visio/archive/2006/07/04/655569.aspx


1) Select the shape in your drawing to which you want to add a tooltip

2) Go to Window > Show Shapesheet

3) If there is already a Section with the title "User-defined Cells", go to step 5.

4) Go to Insert > Section, check User-defined cells and click OK

5) In the "User-defined Cells" section, click on the row name of the last row to select
the title of the row

5) Type visEquivTitle and press Enter - you should now see
User.visEquivTitle for the row

6) Double click into the Value cell of that row and delete the contents of the cell

7) Locate the hyperlink section and click once in the Address field for the hyperlink, then press enter. You should see this in the Value cell of the visEquivTitle row:
    =Hyperlink.Row_1.Address
(note: the row number shown above may be different)

8) If there is already a section with the title "Shape Data", go to step 12

9) Go to Insert > Section, check Custom properties and click OK

10) Provide a Label and Value if you want this information to be visible

11) If you don't want the shape data to be visible, enter TRUE in the
Invisible cell

12) Close the Shapesheet window and repeat for any other shape you like

13) Choose File > Save as Web Page to create the HTML output


Try these steps and let me know whether this produces the desired result.

whoops -- ignore above -- it was intended for a different question

ok...

Hi Scott. How are you.?
I have sent a mail to you on some help. Shall post the same in EE. But can you confirm you have received the same and you have the time for this... :-)

Got the email but haven't had a chance to look at it yet. I'll try tonight or first thing tomorrow (this afternoon is fully booked).

Scott

Ok Scott thank you
