Attributes

Unit

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

F

Optional string. Represents the element's formula. This attribute can contain the string "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.

Remarks

When the value is 1, the user can still flip, rotate, resize shapes, or reposition shapes in groups using other methods.

For groups in masters and groups in instances of masters that were created in versions of Microsoft Visio earlier than Visio 2000, the value of this element is 1.
