In Visio, Links from shapes to pages open in new read-only pages after save

0

Anyone have input on Visio shape links to pages work until save. After save, links open in new read-only window. To demonstrate: Open new blank file. Create a rectangle on the 1st page. Create a 2nd page. Back on first page, create a hyperlink from the rectangle to the 2nd page. Note that ctrl-click on the rectangle takes to 2nd page. Can repeat the switch from 1st page to 2nd page through the rectangle select process. Now save the file. Now when you ctrl-click the rectangle a new read-only window appears (perhaps behind the original window). If you exit Visio and the open the saved file, switch to read-only window happens in the saved file. Anyone able to recreate this behavior and/or know of similar problem with solution?

  • I see there have been 25 views so far. I'm wondering if someone could take a few minutes to try to duplicate my experience and report back. This is very strange behavior and I want to make sure someone else can duplicate it.

  • ctrl-click doesn't appear to work all the time but right-mouse select the link does but have to do it twice to follow the link.
