Vwa.Shape.getShapeData Method
Applies to: SharePoint Server 2010
Returns an array of anonymous objects, each of which corresponds to a shape data item associated with the shape.
var value = Shape.getShapeData()
Return Value
Object[] An array of anonymous objects, each of which corresponds to a shape data item associated with the shape.
Remarks
Each anonymous object in the array that is returned has the following properties:
label A string that specifies the label of the shape data item, which corresponds to the value of the Label cell of a shape data row in Microsoft Visio 2010.
value A string that specifies the value of the shape data item, which corresponds to the value of the Value cell of a shape data row in Visio 2010.
format A string that specifies the format of the shape data item, which corresponds to the value of the Format cell of a shape data row in Visio 2010.
formattedValue A string that specifies the formatted value of the shape data item, used for display purposes.
Shape data that is hidden in Visio 2010 is not returned by this method.
If there are no shape data items associated with the shape, the method returns an empty array.

The following example creates an HTML or Silverlight overlay on shapes in a Visio Web Access Web Part when the mouse enters the bounding box of the shape.
