In Visual Overview, when you link a shape to execute an automation script, is it possible to use a page or session variable to specify the name of a dummy element?

IMPORTANT NOTE: The list below will not be updated, nor kept as a resource on dojo. If there is enough ask, we will create a feature for the Microsoft Visio advanced editing so that we can mark the dynamic shape data in there. That way, when you edit a Visual Overview from DataMiner Cube, you can see which parts are dynamic inside Microsoft Visio.

Following is a list of shape data that can contain dynamic parts. That means that these should be able to handle (most) placeholders to be found in the help. Note that these placeholders need to be relevant to the shape data you're using them in, so not all of them will yield a result at all times.

If you notice something odd regarding a placeholder that doesn't work while you'd expect it to, ask your question on the Dojo and someone will be sure to help you.
