Save As Visio

Top  Previous  Next

LANsurveyor can create an exact copy of your map in Microsoft Visio format. This feature requires Visio 2003 or newer.

 

Prior to saving your map in Visio format, lay out the map as you would like it reproduced in Visio, including Map Levels, Show/Hide Nodes, and  Zoom percent.

 

When you select Save As Visio from the File menu or click on the Save As Visio icon clip0105, LANsurveyor displays a notification dialog box:

 

visio export

 

LANsurveyor must use Microsoft's Visio development tools to create the map nodes and connectors, so the process is not interruptible. Click OK to proceed.

 

visio status

 

Once completed, your LANsurveyor map is re-created in Visio.

 

visio drawing

 

Your new Visio diagram includes your personalized information and a logo in the upper-left hand corner of the diagram. LANsurveyor uses the logo contained in the "YourLogo.bmp" file in the installation directory (typically C:\Program Files\SolarWinds\SolarWinds LANsurveyor). In addition, the line color legend is displayed in the lower-right corner of the diagram.

 

AutoSave in Visio Format

 

You can also use Continuous Scan's AutoSave feature to save time-stamped Visio-format LANsurveyor maps.
