Aspose.Diagram for Java logo

We’re pleased to announce that the new version 6.3.0 of Aspose.Diagram for Java API is now live. The recent features give flexibility and control to the developers because we genuinely care about our clients and are dedicated to serving them well. Two features are incorporated with regular bug fixes and enhancements. Developers can show or hide pages of a Visio diagram in various output files like SVG, XPS, Image, HTML, and PDF. They can also identify the format of a Visio file by content. Let’s go into the details.

Show or Hide the Pages of Visio Diagram while Exporting to SVG, XPS, Image, HTML and PDF

Using Aspose.Diagram API, developers were already able to hide or show the pages of any Visio diagram by setting the UIVisiblity cell in the page ShapeSheet. Developers may also require to export the Visio diagram in other supported file formats yet the export feature was not omitting the Visio pages with hidden visibility. It was including all the Visio pages in output files. This version adds ExportHiddenPage property in SVG, XPS, Image, HTML and PDF save options. The flexibility of this feature gives more control over the visibility of hidden Visio pages in the exported files.

Identify the Format of Visio File

Identification of a Visio file format is crucial, as without that, developers may come across an error to open the file. Upon using Aspose.Diagram API, developers can now identify the file type by its content. Developers would also be able to sort Visio files by type to process identical files together with any application. This help topic shows how to identify the Visio file format: Detect the Format of Visio File

We have improved the ability of reading and writing VSDX diagrams using Aspose.Diagram API. Previously, it was changing the style of lines and text as well as rendering dummy characters.
