AgilePart Shape

AgilePoint Envision provides the AgilePart and AgileWork AgileShapes, which enables you to associate your own custom AgileParts or AgileWorks (which you build in AgilePoint Developer) with a common, pre-built AgileShape in Envision. This allows you to use the .NET code for a custom AgilePart or AgileWork without creating a custom Visio shape. This is a shortcut that is often used to test custom AgileParts or AgileWorks. Usually in a production environment, organizations will take the extra step to create a unique AgileShape to associate with the custom AgilePart or AgileWork. These AgileShapes include all of the core properties of AgileParts and AgileWorks. They can also include additional custom properties.



Prerequisites

  • Create a custom AgilePart using the AgilePart project template in AgilePoint Developer.
  • Register the custom AgilePart in Envision.
