<o:shapelayout v:ext="edit">
  <o:rules v:ext="edit">
    <o:r id="V:Rule1" type="connector" idref="#_s1036">
      <o:proxy start="" idref="#_s1033" connectloc="0"/>

Namespace: urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml

Specifies an optional value that indicates how applications that implement VML should interpret extensions not defined as part of the original specification of core VML.

[Rationale: This part of the original VML specification is included to assist applications that leverage existing VML support in implementing the Office Open XML Format. end rationale]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_Ext simple type (§14.1.3.2).

[Note: The W3C XML Schema definition of this element’s content model (CT_Rules) is located in §A.6.2. end note]
