Hello everyone,
I am developing a view in MS Visio and I would like to ask for some guidance. I need to create a button that, when clicked, opens an undocked window with some information. I have already implemented this functionality using the shape data: VdxPage = "Mypage"|Window, as shown in the image below. The information is being displayed correctly in DataMiner.
However, I am facing a difficulty with the window’s border, which currently only shows the close button, as you can see in the screenshot below:
I would like to know if it’s possible to add Minimize and Maximize buttons to this window, similar to standard web windows. If this is not possible, could you suggest any other way to achieve this functionality?
Thank you in advance for your help!
When staying within the same Visual Overview, there is no way to get the minimize and maximize buttons currently.
One way to get similar behavior to what you want is to open a new undocked card altogether by using SHIFT+Click on a shape that links to the same element/service/view. You can then navigate to popup page you want with the "Page" shape data, provided that this page is not hidden.
So your shape data would be:
View | [this view]
Page | v:Uplink
Hope that helps you further, but I would understand if this is not exactly the behavior you want. Therefore, you could also post a feature suggestion and we can see if there is more ask for this functionality.
