I made a mistake in the name of the container, after this I changed its name from "Conteiner" to "Container".
In drawing explorer it becomes "Container"
in ShapeSheet header, Shape Layout.Relationships and glue formula it lefts as "Conteiner"
How to update the name of a shape?
This is the Name/NameU problem. Doing a search in this forum for NameU will find many similar posts.
I have a utility which can help with this problem:

Thank you, Paul. I`ll see, I really disappointed of such behavior of the "best" diagramming software of the world (:
A very good explanation is here :
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/visio/2006/07/27/name-and-nameu/ (https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/visio/2006/07/27/name-and-nameu/)
And very simple macros which rename "universal" name to "local" name
Sub reNameMe()
Dim visApp As Visio.Application
Set visApp = Application
Dim visWin As Visio.Window
Set visWin = visApp.ActiveWindow
Dim visSel As Visio.Selection
Set visSel = visWin.Selection
' allow only one shape to be selected
If visSel.Count = 1 Then
Dim visShape As Visio.Shape
Set visShape = visSel(1)
visShape.NameU = visShape.Name
End If
End Sub
There is very good reasoning behind this behaviour. Shapes have a local language name and a universal name. Normally it's only the local name that gets changed.
This universal name is really confusing, like all half-measures.
If you want to identify shapes in multiple languages, you are probably more developer than user.
Then you can just go with shape id or guid instead. Why confuse people with shadow names?
Looks like the intention was to provide power users with tools to develop multilanguage shapes.
But has anyone ever seen a user doing this? Creating multi-language shapes, that is?
Oh well.. may be this feature is just not hidden good enough.. :)
For masters, it may have sense though. If you want the code like page.Drop( "square" ) to work also in German and Japanese versions of Visio where square is named differently.
