EndTrigger Element

Contains a trigger formula generated by Microsoft Visio. This trigger formula determines whether to move the end point of a 1-D shape to maintain its connection to another shape.

Syntax

<EndTrigger
    [Unit]
    [F]
    [Err]>
</EndTrigger>

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.

When you glue a 1-D shape to another shape by using dynamic glue, Visio generates a formula that refers to the EventXFMod element of the other shape. When that shape is changed, Visio recalculates any formula that refers to its EventXFMod element, including the formula in the EndTrigger element. Other formulas of the 1-D shape refer to the EndTrigger element and move the end point of the 1-D shape or alter the shape as needed.

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