Hello all,
new to Visio. Tries to understand how (complex) shapes are formatted.
How do microsoft achieve the fill effect where only some of the shapes in i a group take a fill color, and others do not (they actually switch to a white color)?
If I import a composite SVG-file or for that matter a pair of files and group them together, changing the fill color fills everything.

I am unable to find a guide on how you achieve this effect when creating custom shapes.
Grateful for any insight into this.
You can give separate subshapes in Visio a separate fill, so this is possible.
Studied the standard shape some more and figured it out.

The Visio UI and code work in different ways. The UI affects all shapes within a group.
