We are pleased to announce the new release of Aspose.Diagram for Java 5.9.0. The complete support for reading and writing VSSX stencil and VSTX template have been added. Developers can also embed output HTML resources into the single HTML document, copy styles and page sheet properties from other Visio drawings. Starting from this version, Aspose.Diagram API allows developers to migrate their old stencils (.VSS) and templates (.VST) to the new VSSX and VSTX formats respectively. It helps in using vector graphics to create diagrams and get rid of old complex binary formats. Aspose.Diagram API users can now serve the scenario where they need to embed output HTML resources into a single HTML document and also save it in the instance of a stream. This feature also enables them to store the output HTML in the repository or storage. Previously, Aspose.Diagram API was only saving the output HTML along with its resources in a separate directory. In Microsoft Office Visio, when we paste shapes into a destination Visio, it copies every style and formatting associated with the shapes. In order to mimic the behavior of MS Office Visio, Aspose.Diagram API has added CopyTheme method in the Diagram class and Copy method in the PageSheet class. These new methods also cover many defects in reference to missing style and formatting of the shapes during various manipulation tasks. This release includes several enhanced features and bug fixes as listed below
