Hi all,
I am working with a view that contains multiple Services.
I would like to show on the View the Visio of each service in a separate window.
(A view with 4 services - so on the View visio I would insert 4 shapes that would preview the Visio of each service)
I don't know what Shape Data should I use to accomplish this.
Can you help me out ?
Thanks.
The shape data you need to use to display a page within another view is vdxPage.

You can point the shape to another element/service by using the Element shape data. For example:
- Element: elementName (or elementID)
- vdxPage: PageName
* In the case of services try both with Element and Service.
vdxPage is very flexible allowing for options such as Popup, Window, Tooltip.
In your case, you could use vdxPage in combination with dynamic shapes to create a shape per service. See Generating shapes based on child items in a view or a service
Then, using the vdxPage Tooltip option, you could show a tooltip when the user hovers over the shape representing each of the services.
