Create Visio Diagrams via C# .NET API
The open source C# library VisioAutomation gives developers the capability to create Visio diagrams without using Microsoft Visio. You can also easily read the contents of an existing diagram. You can easily select and draw shapes for your diagram. Like Visio, the library also automatically draws connectors between shapes. You can also set the progress shape to update itself based on its position.
Create & Modify a ShapeSheet
VisioAutomation library allows developers to update ShapeSheet inside their own diagram. The update allows you to professionally alter the contents (formulas, results, or both) of a shapesheet. You can also retrieve data from shapes using a ShapeSheet query. It supports retrieving formulas, results as well as formulas and results simultaneously.
Add and Delete Cells in a Visio Diagram
You can use the VisioAutomation library to manage cells inside Viso Diagrams. The library provides functionality for adding a new cell, finding out how many user-defined cells exist, checking if a cell exists, and deleting a cell.
