How to export Visio shapes to XAML and use it with Silverlight
Tuesday, June 19, 2007 8:01:47 PM
But even in the latest version of the MSFT tool, it is not possible to save a drawing as XAML.
Strange....
But there is a way around it. But only if you really, really want it
I tested this with a pc shape.
This is how you can use this shape in XAML
- Install the XPS driver
- Print to an XPS file
- Rename the XPS file to a zip file
- Extract the 1.fpage
- Rename it to 1.xaml
- Open it in SPKet and replace the XML declaration with the XAML one and add a <Canvas> tag around the design. You should see the preview in the tool
The XAML file is attached
pc.xaml
Now you see what I mean with "If you really, really want it" ...
