Reading the contents of Microsoft Visio (2010) doc in IronPython

Question

I have an assignment to write a program in IronPython, that reads a Visio (2010) Document, and outputs in CMD what objects are in the active page, and how they are connected to

Answer 1

You could start with something like this... it's pretty straightforward I suppose..

.......
.......
page = visapp.ActivePage

for shape in page.Shapes:
    if not shape.OneD:
        print shape.Name + " '" + shape.Text + "'"
        for connectedShapeId in shape.ConnectedShapes(2, ""):
            connectedShape = page.Shapes.ItemFromID[connectedShapeId]
            print " => " + connectedShape.Name + " '" + connectedShape.Text + "'"
