Summary

In this chapter, we have explored a lot of the ShapeSheet functions that can be used in validation tests, and we have focused on the ShapeSheet sections that are probably most relevant for creating validation rules.

You may have noticed that there are no functions for checking connectivity in this chapter. Well, they are part of the new quasi-ShapeSheet functions that can only be used with the Validation API, so we will examine those later.

In the next chapter, we will examine the new Validation Rules API and you will understand why it is important to understand both the Visio object model and ShapeSheet functions, if you want to be able to analyze existing rules or create your own.
