VISIO: is there any limit to the amount of shape data that can be added?

Hi Dojo, as per title, please:
is there any limit to the amount of shape data that can be added?
I'd like to add an additional shape data field here (to make a few more selections):

when I click my "Add shape data", nothing happens - I believe I'm using Visio Plan 2.

Alternatively, would there be some syntax to order and filter children (all in one, e.g. even number first, then the specific child names) all within ChildrenOptions?

My use case is to be able to select given rows within the target table (ChildrenFilter?).

Hi Alberto,

very nice and interesting questions you have!
I can't find any documentation which should verify your questions..
However, I work with Visio for several years and can share my experience with you:
- you can add each shape data only once for each shape.
- there is no limit to the amount of shape data on a shape.
However, I won't go too excessive and keep it simple as possible (manageable).
- The sequence/order of the shape data does not matter.

Note: I do work with Visio 2013 or Visio 2016 and not with Visio plan.

Hope this helps you further

Thanks, Matthias – indeed I believe this is an issue on a local client – I’ve done a test from a different installation and the shapes are added as expected there.

I do hope the answer is clear and straight forward.
