Hi everyone,

In order for me to open MS Visio diagrams do they need to be in a .xml format or can OmniGraffle open a .vsd?

I ask because I have a ton of the .vsd and getting them in a .xml format would be difficult, if not impossible, for some of the flows that I have.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Mike

Mike, OG will open .vsd files fine. I have a lot of vsd's and they all open and render well. Exporting graffles back to vsd's however, is a lot more hit and miss. They export as .vdx (Visio XML) but I find depending on what you do in Graffle, they sometimes render terribly. In my experience, don't use any shading for a start.

Of course, the visio export is only applicable to the Pro version of OG.

Hope that helps answer your question.

Cheers
