readonly pages: Visio.PageCollection;

Property Value

Examples

Visio.run(session, function (ctx) {
    var pages = ctx.document.pages;
    var pageCount = pages.getCount();
    return ctx.sync().then(function () {
        console.log("Pages Count: " +pageCount.value);
    });
}).catch(function(error) {
    console.log("Error: " + error);
    if (error instanceof OfficeExtension.Error) {
        console.log("Debug info: " + JSON.stringify(error.debugInfo));
    }
});

Returns the DocumentView object. Read-only.

[ API set: 1.1 ]

readonly view: Visio.DocumentView;

Property Value

Returns the Active Page of the document.

[ API set: 1.1 ]

getActivePage(): Visio.Page;

Returns

Examples

Visio.run(session, function (ctx) {
    var document = ctx.document;
    var activePage = document.getActivePage();
    activePage.load("name");
    return ctx.sync().then(function () {
        console.log("pageName: " +activePage.name);
    });   
}).catch(function(error) {
    console.log("Error: " + error);
    if (error instanceof OfficeExtension.Error) {
        console.log("Debug info: " + JSON.stringify(error.debugInfo));
    }
});

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call "context.sync()" before reading the properties.

load(option?: Visio.Interfaces.DocumentLoadOptions): Visio.Document;

Parameters

Returns

Remarks

In addition to this signature, this method has the following signatures:

load(option?: string | string[]): Visio.Document - Where option is a comma-delimited string or an array of strings that specify the properties to load.

load(option?: { select?: string; expand?: string; }): Visio.Document - Where option.select is a comma-delimited string that specifies the properties to load, and options.expand is a comma-delimited string that specifies the navigation properties to load.

load(option?: { select?: string; expand?: string; top?: number; skip?: number }): Visio.Document - Only available on collection types. It is similar to the preceding signature. Option.top specifies the maximum number of collection items that can be included in the result. Option.skip specifies the number of items that are to be skipped and not included in the result. If option.top is specified, the result set will start after skipping the specified number of items.

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

load(propertyNames?: string | string[]): Visio.Document;

Parameters

Returns

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

load(propertyNamesAndPaths?: { select?: string; expand?: string; }): Visio.Document;

Parameters

Returns

Sets multiple properties of an object at the same time. You can pass either a plain object with the appropriate properties, or another API object of the same type.

set(properties: Interfaces.DocumentUpdateData, options?: OfficeExtension.UpdateOptions): void;

Parameters

Returns

Remarks

This method has the following additional signature:

set(properties: Visio.Document): void

Sets multiple properties on the object at the same time, based on an existing loaded object.

set(properties: Visio.Document): void;

Parameters

Returns

Set the Active Page of the document.

[ API set: 1.1 ]

setActivePage(PageName: string): void;

Parameters

Returns

Examples

Visio.run(session, function (ctx) {
    var document = ctx.document;
    var pageName = "Page-1";
    document.setActivePage(pageName);
    return ctx.sync();
}).catch(function(error) {
    console.log("Error: " + error);
    if (error instanceof OfficeExtension.Error) {
        console.log("Debug info: " + JSON.stringify(error.debugInfo));
    }
});

Triggers the refresh of the data in the Diagram, for all pages.

[ API set: 1.1 ]

startDataRefresh(): void;

Returns

Examples

Visio.run(session, function (ctx) {
    var document = ctx.document;
    document.startDataRefresh();
    return ctx.sync();
}).catch(function(error) {
    console.log("Error: " + error);
    if (error instanceof OfficeExtension.Error) {
        console.log("Debug info: " + JSON.stringify(error.debugInfo));
    }
});

Overrides the JavaScript toJSON() method in order to provide more useful output when an API object is passed to JSON.stringify(). (JSON.stringify, in turn, calls the toJSON method of the object that is passed to it.) Whereas the original Visio.Document object is an API object, the toJSON method returns a plain JavaScript object (typed as Visio.Interfaces.DocumentData) that contains shallow copies of any loaded child properties from the original object.

toJSON(): Visio.Interfaces.DocumentData;

Returns
