How do you collapse multiple visio drawings int a multisheet drawi

[Michael Munford]

Is there an efficient way to collapse multiple individual drawings into a
single multi-sheet visio document?? I have 13 drawings that I want to
assemble and then use double-click behaviours on objects to switch pages...

If I try to add blank pages to the main drawing and use "copy drawing", my
connectors get mangled on the target sheet...

There is no built-in feature that takes multiple Visio files and turns
them into a multi paged single Visio file although it can be done with
custom code.

You may be copying a diagram to a page that has different layout
settings from the original and this could change the connector
behaviors. For example, if you copy an Org Chart created with the Org
Chart solution to a default blank page, you might not get the same
connector behaviors. Check File>Page Setup>Layout and Routing on both
the original and copied pages and verify that they are the same.

After much poking around and trial and error (based on your "Page Setup"
suggestion), I discovered the subtle difference that was causing my issues.
The original drawing (that is to be my "top-level" master drawing) had a
"drawing scale" set to a custom setting of '1 inch = 10 inch'. All of my
newer drawings had the default of '1 inch = 1 inch'. getting those matched
up, caused my "copy Drawing" function to bahave as expected....

Thanks for the pointer in the right direction!!
