Title: Organisation chart -Change selected custom fields to display
Post by: spaceman1000 on June 26, 2013, 11:34:31 PM
Hi.
I've inherited a large visio org chart, with shapes containing 10 custom properties.   The details (text and numbers) from 2 of the custom prop' fields display in the shapes.  How do I select different fields to display?

I've googled for answers, and going balmy not finding any answer.  All I can find is how to import a list into visio, and initially select fields to display in the org chart.  But no where can i find how within visio I can  chose different fields to display.

Thanks in advance
Peter

You should see Org-Chart on the ribbon/menu, from  there select Options (or Display Options) and select Fields.

It's on the menu, Organisation Chart. If it's not there when a document is open then that's a very different problem.

I can't see Options or Display Options in the Org-Chart ribbon in Visio 2013 when I've got a document created by the Org Chart Wizard open.

Has Microsoft removed Options/Display Options in the Org-Chart ribbon in Visio 2013?
