I am creating an org chart from an excel spreadsheet. Each row has Employee Name and Job Title, but also Employee ID and Supervisor Employee ID (both number data types).
I am using the Organization Chart Wizard to automatically create an org chart as a starting point (its pretty big). In doing so, I use the two numeric fields in the "name" and "reports to" fields because we have employees with the same name. However, I do not want these numerical fields displayed in the org chart shapes. You can see in the second picture I cannot remove the three default fields from the chosen "Shape Data Fields."
Here's what the shapes look like, I want to remove the number field altogether. Regardless of the shape stencil I select, I get the same behavior.
If I try to delete the shape, I get the error "shape protection, container and/or layer properties prevent complete execution." Even when I go to Developer -> Protection -> Unlock, the issue persists. Thus, it must be an issue with the container or layer properties.
Lastly, this page has a "To Delete a data field" section at the bottom. I tried exactly this, and the fields were removed from the Define Shape Data box, but the shapes remained unchanged, still showing all fields:

Tweak the master you want to use by decorticating its structure.
In the drawing explorer check whether the shape (the master) is group or a single shape. Find out where the ID (the 3rd field) is used for display, adjust accordingly by correcting the shapesheet.
Sorry for such a generic explanation. If we could exchange files, I would have had a look at your master and could have corrected it.
HTH, Y.
I had the same issue, and eventually found that I could prevent the ID field (used in Name) from displaying, using Display Options - on the Org Chart tab, using the dialog box launcher button (bottom-right) in the Shapes section.
The ID field is shown as 'Name' under Block 2 - you can use the drop-down to set this to 'None' (so that it doesn't display at all), or pick one of the other fields that you chose to display in its place.

I'm trying to design a custom shape in Visio.
My structure is like this:
In the "Edit Master" page I have some rectangles, I called my shape "MyDay", so that's its document's name in the Master Explorer and in the edit window.
My problem is, that I can't find a way to refer the shape's date itself (like =MyDay!Name() or =MyDay!User.MyUserField) from one of my sub-shapes.
If I add a reference to ThePage and drop the master on a page - I adds that property to the page itself - again - no reference to the main shape from its sub-shapes.
I know there is no "Parent" property in ShapeSheet formulas (only on VBA), but I'm really trying to find a way to refer it using fields or formulas, without the need to write and run VBA code.
Many appreciations for any help!
Paul is correct, but I will add that it is normally expected that a Master contains only one shape, but that can be a group shape that contains other shapes. Therefore, a formula in a sub-shape can refer to any shape in that group, including the top level group shape, using the Sheet.n syntax. When an instance of the master shape is dropped onto a page, then Visio will automatically update the n ID to the actual shape ID in the page. The shape ID has to be unique within the shapes collection that it is part of, so the top-level group shape needs to be assigned a new unique ID, but the sub-shapes do not because they already have an ID that is unique within the shapes collection that they are part of.
You need to find the parent shape's Sheet reference number (select it and then ribbon Developer -> Shape Name -> Shape). This will be something like Sheet.6.
Use this reference in your formula e.g.
Sheet.6!User.MyUserField
I created a inherited process under inherited Scrum process (like 'X-Scrum') and added new fields like the below,
X.Original Estimate (Decimal)
X.Completed work (Decimal)
X.Remaining work (Decimal)
This is successfully done and reflected in the task screen.
Issue/ Help required:
I'm not able to bring those three fields into QUERIES, as I would like to extract all product backlog item, tasks and related custom fields.
Can someone help me on how to bring the custom fields into the queries.
Some special characters are prohibited for the Definition name of the custom field. If you add a new field with one of them(eg. .,()), you will get below error.
However you can change the Label of the field in the Layout section, which will be displayed in the task screen
In the QUERIES, only the Definition Name is showing up in the fields
So I guess you just changed the Layout Label of the custom field as X.Original Estimate (Decimal). But the Definition Name of the custom field is not X.Original Estimate (Decimal). Yon need to check what is Name for the field in Definition section. The Queries will reflect this Name.
Using MySQL Workbensh 6.3.7 on Windows 10, I am finding the search behavior strange.
There is an entry box that you could use to enter the name of the table, however, this does not work every time! I mean it sometimes finds the table and sometimes it does not! When it works, it is very good. I can enter 1 or more chars from start and the tool would highlight the table in the diagram, for some tables, even entering the full name, it does not find the table!
If I go to a specific table from the tree on the left-hand-side nav, and double click the table, it opens its properties, but it does not select it on the drawing area!
I have generated the DDL and searched it as text to find columns and relations then traced that back manually but this is difficult for large diagrams.
I want to be able to search for a table (even with wild card) and find it in the drawing surface - Also, what does the dot at the right side of the table name in the schema treeview mean?
The search behavior sounds like a bug to me. It should always select the table figures that match. When you file a bug report for that (http://bugs.mysql.com) it can be fixed.
The dot in the catalog treeview is just an indicator which db object has been placed already on the current diagram.
A tip: use layers to organize bigger diagrams. Use colors for different groups of db objects, like this:
You can change the colors on the Properties tab in the lower left corner, even for multiple figures in one step.
And don't forget you can increase the size of the diagram to fit more figures on it. See the menu Model -> Diagram Properties and Size....
How to Check node existence in dell boomi, Like I have name element in source and sometime name is blank then I do not want to map that data on the target.
You can use Decision Shape component for this purpose.
From the configuration window in the First Value parameter Choose Profile Element -> select your profile and then your element(on the basis you want to add conditon) From the configuration window in the Second Value parmeter Choose Static and blank value. Now the Decision shape will behave as per your requirement. If the element has a value it will go to True branch else it will go to False branch. Find more option and information:Decision Shape example Boomi I hope it answers your question.
The mapping behavior you'll see is that the document that comes out of the map will not have any data profile fields that weren't set.
The destination data profile in the map can have a default value set to guard against the source data missing the desired field contents.
If I understand your question, if the name element/field is blank for a given mapped document, the document that emerges will "not map" that field, it will emerge with that mapped field missing.
Dell's doc on this doesn't cover your question, but does have some helpful detail: http://help.boomi.com/atomsphere/GUID-CA9E44A0-5621-46AE-8419-C334B374D7E3.html
I have been using the content report table macro, which has been working. Ideally, I only want to list content matching certain labels, and lock in an alphabetical sort order and not show the content author.
I have not been successful in figuring out a way to do this just yet.
Is there a way to just edit the source code for that macro and create a "new one"? I'm struggling to find any useful documentation out there.
Any suggestions are appreciated!
I was also interested on doing this some days ago. Unfortunately, the Content Report Table Macro only have very limited parameters which are very strict. However, the way I succeeded to display only certain properties from the pages and present them in a tabular way (in Confluence 5.8) was with the combination of the macros Page Properties and Page Properties Report, both of them linked by a unique label. I'll break it down below.
Outcome:
1. Set up of properties you want to track
Create a page.
Add the Page Properties macro (no need to specify an ID)
Within the macro just add a table with all the properties you need to keep track of, similar to this:
Important, this is what links the two macros together: Add a label to the recently created page.
2. Display properties in main page
Add Page Properties Report macro. Specify label used across all the already created pages. Also specify the space (I just love this part). In here you also add custom fields (some fields from Content Reports are here). In Options you can specify which properties to display (columns to show), also the sorting order (in my case I'm sorting by the property ID that I added to each page).
Note: if you just want to remove the content author this can even be done easier: no need to add any property, just specify the label of your pages and add the fields you need to show and sorting order.
Hope this helps.
