Attributes

Unit

Optional string. Represents a unit of measure. The default is NUM. For details about NUM, see Units of measure.

F

Optional string. Represents the element's formula. This attribute can contain one of the following strings: "someFormula" if the formula exists locally, "No Formula" if the formula is locally deleted or blocked, or "Inh" if the formula is inherited.

If the attribute is not present, the element's formula is a simple constant. For example, <element>5</element>.

Err

Optional string. Indicates that the formula evaluates to an error. The value of Err is the current value (an error message string); the value of the element is the last valid value.

The default behavior for connectors and other 1-D shapes varies by drawing type.

Automatic splitting of shapes is enabled and disabled at three different levels: application, page, and shape. By default, splitting is enabled at the application level and page levels.

To enable or disable splitting at the application level, use the Enable connector splitting setting on the General tab of the Options dialog box ( Tools menu).

To enable or disable splitting on a page, see the PageShapeSplit element.

To cause a shape to be able to split 1-D splittable shapes, see the ShapeSplit element.

The ShapeSplittable element is relevant only when contained in a Shape or StyleSheet element. It is ignored when contained in a DocumentSheet or PageSheet element.
