Visio 2013 & Equation Editor 3.0 = Blurred Equation

My OS is Windows 8.1 Update 1. My PowerPoint is 2013 with SP1. My Visio is 2013 with SP1.
I have a PowerPoint file. It contains a Visio object. The Visio object contains some drawings and some Equation Editor 3.0 objects. The Equation Editor 3.0 objects are very clear in the original PowerPoint file. But if I open the PowerPoint file, right-click
the Visio object and edit it by Visio 2013, go back to PowerPoint, then the Equation Editor 3.0 objects will become blurred! Please see this video for the demonstration:
http://1drv.ms/1r2GanG
I downgraded only Visio from 2013 with SP1 to 2010. The problem was solved. So, the blurring problem could be a Visio 2013 bug. If it is, please fix this bug, Microsoft. Thanks.
The test PowerPoint files can be download here:

Hi,
Based on my tested in my environment (OS Windows 8.1 & Office 2013 SP1), I can reproduce your issue with your PowerPoint files. But I found that your Visio file was not created in Visio 2013, when I double click the Equation Editor 3.0 objects
in Visio, I got an error message "An error(1415) occurred during the action open object. Visio is unable to edit the MathType 6.0 Equation Object". Thus, I suppose your Equation Editor 3.0 objects have some compatibility issues with Visio 2013.
Then, I try to create a new Equation Editor in Visio 2013, and insert to a PowerPoint 2013 file, it works well.
Please try the workaround to recreate them with Office 2013 suits and do not use the original file.

VIsio 2013 Activation Issue

Visio 2013 installed correctly, however when I try to activate all I get is the "Sorry we are having some temporary server issues" Try again later. This has been going on for two days does anyone know how to fix this issue?

Hi,
Please try the following method:
In the registry editor (regedit.exe), you find HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\Internet\WebServiceCache\AllUsers\office15client.microsoft.com
Delete all the subfolders of the ...\office15client.microsoft.com folder.
This should immediately fix the problem.
Note Please back up your registry before you modify.

SharePoint Designer 2010 and Visio 2013 Issues

I currently have Visio 2013 and SharePoint Designer 2010 installed. I have two problems that I'm experiencing and any help would be greatly appreciated.
1. I'm able to export an already manually created workflow from SharePoint Designer 2010 as a .vwi file without a problem and am able to import the file into Visio Pro 2013. I
was also able to export the file from Visio once changes were made. However, when I go to import the file into SharePoint Designer I receive a message stating "This workflow cannot be imported because it was created in SharePoint Designer for a
different site, or the original workflow has been moved or deleted. To move a workflow between sites, use Save as Template (.wsp file) instead of Visio workflow drawing." I cannot figure out how to save it in the format the prompt is suggesting
as this is not available from the list of Save As options from Visio and when exporting from Visio the only format to do so is as a Visio Workflow Interchange (.vwi file). When exporting from SharePoint Designer I’m only able to export as a .vwi file
and the Save As option is not available in SharePoint Designer. Additionally, the file location where I exported from SharePoint and importing back into SharePoint is not changing, nor is the file name.
2. If I create a workflow from scratch within Visio utilizing the SharePoint 2010 shapes, I'm about to export without a problem and save as a .vwi file. I'm also able to import this workflow into SharePoint Designer, but the problem is the workflow
never actually shows up and I do not receive any errors.
Any help on either or both of these issues would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Eric

Use Visio 2010. You may be running into a compatibility issue between Visio 2013 and Designer 2010.

Sharepoint Designer 2010 and Visio 2013

I am testing out Visio Professional 2013. I can import a VWI file from Sharepoint Designer 2010 and I can export a VWI file from Visio. But when I try to import the VWI file created in Visio 2013 into sharpoint Designer 2010 it appears to work, as
I don't get an error, but the work flow never appears. Any thoughts?

Hi,
Based on my research, if it is SharePoint Designer 2010, then the only edition that supports SharePoint workflows is Visio 2010 Premium edition.
And if you use Visio 2013, then it need to use SharePoint Designer 2013.

How to get mouse over shape to display data in Visio 2013?

Hi Visio pros,
I am required to create a diagram of our servers rack setup and will be publishing to a Web page using Visio 2013.
The goal is to mouse over the server shape and have the data be displayed. I have followed arguably every solution on the internet. I am either doing it wrong, or it might be outdated information.
I'm hoping Paul Herber, or other Visio pros would be able to help me with this situation as I am on a tight schedule and have exhausted my resources.
Things I have tried:
user.visEquivTitle in ShapeSheet
http://visualsignals.typepad.co.uk/vislog/2012/02/no-mouseover-with-visequivtitle.html
and
prop.(data name) in the comments within the miscellaneous section of the ShapeSheet.

Hi Sir!
I am open to the possibility that I may have done something wrong as I am very new to Visio.
Here are the steps I followed:
http://visio.mvps.org/ShapeSheet/
Browser that I am using is Internet Explorer since I ran into problems with Google Chrome.
However, after more reading I noticed the User.visEquivTitle provides a tooltip. If it is what I think it is, which is a small yellow box displaying a string, my employer would not want that.
We're looking for something that will provide an aesthetic display of data after mouse over onto the shape.
Thank you very much for your help.

App-V 5.0: Adding Visio 2013 and Project 2013 to a previously deployed virtual Office 2013

Good morning.
I can successfully deploy Office 2013 via PowerShell and App-V v5.0 without difficulty. I've read the document at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2915745/en-us and followed all instructions successfully.
My question is this: If Office 2013 without Visio 2013 or Project 2013 is virtually deployed, how can those components be added later?
For instance, we may have 100 users that acquire a virtualized Office 2013 without Project or Visio. We then may have 25 users that require a virtualized Office and Visio without Project and, perhaps, another 15 that require Office and Project without
Visio.
Currently, when I attempt a second virtual deployment of one of these components, it removes Office 2013 making it inaccessible.
How can Project and/or Visio be deployed to an already existing virtually deployed Office 2013?
Thanks very much.
John

As a part of MDOP, you'll also have access to UE-V which will provide a mechanism of moving user preferences across the same applications from difference packages.
It will require planning, configuration and deployment, but will ensure you don't face the same issue in the future.

Acrobat 11.0.10 Addin in Visio 2013

The Acrobat Addin is not visible in Visio 2013. The goal is to use the Addin to generate high quality PDFs. I already tried the following:
Reinstalling Visio 2013
Reinstalling Acrobat 11 with the full-installation option
Checking the registry for the load behavour of the plugin > Visio does not have an option for Addin load behaviour, since HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Visio is not existent. There is no option for the load behaviour in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Visio, the only folder that exists with the name 'Visio'.
Adding the Addin manually within Visio > the Addin does not get added, if the file C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\PDFMaker\Office\PDFMOfficeAddin.dll is selected. Visio does not show any reaction.
Thank you in advance for your help.

I just realized, that Adobe Acrobat XI does not support Visio anymore, according to this source (German): PDFMaker nicht verfügbar | Office 2007, Office 2010 | Acrobat 9, Acrobat X, Acrobat XI

Org Chart Shapes are no longer recognized as org chart shapes by Visio 2013

I created an org chart in Visio 2013 by importing data from Excel. It generated the org chart properly. I then began cleaning up (i.e. Best Fit to Page, changing layouts on pages, changing size & spacing) as need to be visually more
appealing. After cleaning up many pages, Visio no longer recognized the shapes on the page as org chart shapes. This now causes the 'Best Fit to Page' feature to display a msg stating "Add organization chart shapes to your drawing, and
try again." It also causes the 'position' (employee) shapes under a 'manager' shape to no longer move with the manager shape when the manager is repositioned. This is now true for all shapes on all pages in my org chart. Can the
shapes be fixed to go back to being recognized as org chart shapes?

Hi，
If you want to show the pictures in the Organization chart， we need to add the photo the display
fields. Please try to do the following steps:
Create a new Organization chart> Organization Chart Wizard choose information that's already stored in a file or database> Choose A microsft Exchange Server directory> Select Photo and add to display fields> Choose the information which you want
to show> I want to specify how much of my Organization to display on each page > Choose the team

How do you add the Adobe Add-In into Visio 2013?

I have used Adobe with Visio and created PDFs from older versions of Visio 2010 that have the layers in the PDF. I am unable to do this with Visio 2013. Can Adobe Acrobat XI Pro support layers for Visio 2013? how do you add the Adobe Add-In into Visio 2013?

Sabian,
My version of Visio 2013 is 64bit, that because my PC and most of the software is 64bit. When I try to install the add-in for Visio it had error message of not being compatible. I try your "Compatible web browers and PDFMaker applicatios" and notice that Visio 2013 64bit in not listed.
When I try Adobe Acrobat support they told me they don't support Visio 2013 64bit. They didn't say if or when they were going to support Visio 2013 64bit. They suggested I use the Acrobat community forum on "Acrobat Feature Requests" and request the add-in for Visio 2013 64bit. I am not happy with this.
Do you know of any third party PDF that supports layers for Visio 2013 64bit?

How can i get the Adobe plug in to work with Visio 2013?

I purchased Adobe Acrobat x Pro recently and installed it, I have compatibility issues visio 2013. The adobe pdf converter plug in stays inactive despite all my efforts to activate it, I need help with this? How can i get the plug in to work with Visio 2013?

Should have purchased XI. According to Compatible web browsers and PDFMaker applications you will need Acrobat 11.0.1 -and- to be running the 32-bit Visio.

Unable to edit Visio 2013 drawing in Powerpoint 2013

Hello,
I'm unable to edit drawings created in Visio 2013 that I've embedded in Powerpoint 2013 - they copy over as pictures and I can only edit them as such.
Interestingly, I CAN edit Visio 2013 drawings that I have embedded in Powerpoint 2002/XP.
I'm embedding by simply copying the drawing and then pasting on the slide.
Thanks,
Tyson

Open PowerPoint 2013, go to Insert tab > Object > Create a new "Microsoft Visio Drawing", I can edit the drawing what I wanna edit.
open Visio 2013, create a new Drawing File and save as .VSDX file format, and then drag and move this file into a new creaing PPT, I can still edit it as expected.
A bit more background information and your exact steps how you got to this point would be helpfu

Reduced in resolution when converting from Visio to PDF in Visio 2013

I have a .NET application that converts Visio files to PDF using the Document.ExportAsFixedFormat method. This works fine in Visio 2010. However, upon upgrading to Visio 2013, the exact same code is producing PDF with much lower resolution that is unsuitable
for print. I am not sure what is wrong. Is there something I can do to export high resolution PDF with Visio 2013? Thanks!
The following is my code:
_app.ActiveDocument.ExportAsFixedFormat(VisFixedFormatTypes.visFixedFormatPDF, // Format
pdfpath, // Output path
VisDocExIntent.visDocExIntentPrint, // Output quality
VisPrintOutRange.visPrintFromTo, // Range
1, // Start page
-1, // End page
false, // Color as black
true, // Include background
false, // Include document properties
false, // Indicate tag structure
true, // Use ISO 19005-1 (PDF/A).
System.Reflection.Missing.Value // FixedFormatExtClass

Hi Eugene
I am using visFixedFormatPDF, visDocExIntentPrint, and visPrintAll, but there is no improvement in the resolution of the PDF.
The Type.Missing value can only be used for the last parameter. The other parameters require either bool or int, so I get compile errors if I try to use Type.Missing.
I also notice the reduction of resolution in Visio 2013 only applies to bitmap images copied into the Visio file. Lines and shapes drawn in Visio still looks fine. I am getting this problem even if I simply select the Save As menu option and select PDF,
so this problem could be independent of office.interop.
Is there something I can do to avoid the degradation of resolution of bitmaps in Visio 2013? Everything is fine in Visio 2010.

Visio 2013 Ribbon not visible

I have installed Visio Professional 2013 on a Windows 7 Pro Virtual Machine (Apple OS 10.9.2 as the host, VMWare Fusion 4.1.4). Needless to say, all software is genuine :-).
When I open Visio, the startup screen is simply dark grey. The various document template and customisation options are invisible, but hovering the mouse pointer over certain areas shows the help text relevant to the invisible document/option.
When I press Ctrl + N to open the document selected by default I see the image below where the work area renders correctly but the toolbars remain invisible.
Resizing the window shows some of the options, some of the time and they disappear erratically as you start working on the document. The options available under the 'File' option remain invisible. I've got Microsoft Word and Excel from my 2007 Enterprise
package still installed and they work without issue. I've tried uninstalling all Office software and reinstalling Visio only, but the ribbon remains erratic. Word and Excel 2007, after reinstallation, work without issue.
Any suggestions of what I could try to improve Visio's ribbon rendering? I had to revert to Word and Excel 2007 because the 2013 versions are affected by the same issue.
g_p_k_

Hi,
Do you the last sentence mean that the Other Office 2013 suits, such as Word, Excel also occurred the issue?
If it was, please do some tests:
Use Ctrl+F1 to show or hide the ribbon. Please check the dark grey area size if it will be changed
Click the dark grey area to check if some command can be used.
My suggestion:
Start Visio in safe mode (Start > Run in Windows 7, and type
visio /safe and press Enter to start Visio 2013). If the ribbon can be displayed correctly, please try to check the add-ins.

Visio 2013: File Locations option doesn't work

Has there been any reporting of a bug in Visio 2013's File Locations option?
Entering a folder path appears to have no effect on Open and Save dialog boxes for me. This option works fine in all the other Office 2013 applications I have used, but not Visio 2013.
Thanks in advance.

Ok, I see you were not trying to mail it, you're trying to send it to another library
it could be the URL is too long. there is a 256 character limit, and maybe the URL that is getting generated exceeds the limit.
Here are a couple links about the limit
