ChildrenFilter in Visio using Alias

Solved545 views12th August 2024#childshape Alias children childrenfilter Visio

Hi Dojo,

I am trying to show some shapes inside a service based on their elements (DVE's in this case). When I create the children shapes I try to filter them by alias and protocol like this "Name=Cisco Transport IN-HE.*", but the only way i can filter them is using the real DVE name, is there a way to use the alias.
The strange thing is if I do "Info : Element Name" I do get the alias instead of the element name.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi,

Currently we do not support Alias names within ChildrenFilters, only the actual name of the elements.

This does seem like an interesting feature, maybe post it within the feature suggestions so we can grasp what the community thinks about the feature: https://community.dataminer.services/feature-suggestions/
