Can't open object property

M

Mikkel

Hi

Im not actually new to Visio, but Im new to Visio 2007, so this may be the
issue... :)

Im working on an UML drawing embedded in a MS Presentation document. Some
times (havent figured out what triggers this problem) I cant edit an objects
property. Nothing happens when I double-click og right-click and select
Properties. Closing Visio and MS Presentation does not fix this btw ;)

When this happens, it does not happen to all the objects. I can edit e.g. 10
various objects, but not the rest.

Once I have rebooted the computer, things goes back to normal.

Have any1 experiences anything like this? Or even better, know how to fix it
:)

Regards,
Mikkel

I think you might be hitting the issue as discussed in this article :
922973 The functionality of a Visio 2007 drawing object does not occur when
you edit the drawing in 2007 Office programs
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;922973

Essentially, you will want to Insert the drawing objects instead of using
Copy/Paste (or Paste-Link) to make sure that it will work properly.

I am using objects straight from the shapes in visio 2007. When attempting to access object properties I get no action or any indication that I clicked anything. I am only using Visio 2007 to view diagram. Rebooting doesn't help. Thanks!
