Presentation on Building Solutions using the Visio 2007 Data API

  • 아티클

The Office team has put up video of all of the presentations from the Office Developer Conference held this past spring. At the conference, I presented a Visio 2007 session focusing on building solutions using the new Data APIs. The direct link to the video of the session is available here. The quality of the video is high, so beware that it is a 182 MB download.

In the session we cover the three main aspects of programming against the Data APIs: Importing the data, linking the data to shapes, and displaying the data using Data Graphics. Along with the slides detailing the APIs and some possible scenarios, I build an example application (visualizing sales on a supermarket floor plan) from scratch.

Here's a high level guide to what is in the presentation:

  • 2:00 – Demo of the end user data features
  • 6:48 – Example scenarios and applications
  • 11:20 – The first part of the demo, including an overview of the application and the initial creation of the data solution
  • 22:20 – Details on the Data API
  • 39:10 – The second part of the demo, showing more on programming Data Graphics and creating new shapes from data

We'll be publishing full documentation on the Data API soon, but this should give you a good introduction to what is possible and some tips on how to get started.

    I really enjoyed your presentation on Data Visualization. The drill down to showing products on shelves was excellent. Is the number of products on each shelf created dynamically from the data, if Yes how do you do this ? Thanks Paul

    I'm happy you enjoyed the presentation. I don't have the code packaged up for public consumption right now, but I'll put that together and post it up in the next week or so. Thanks, Bill
