Import from Visio (.vsdx files)

View as Markdown

You can import Visio diagrams into Capable and continue editing them there. Once imported, the diagram remains fully editable within Capable, so you can adjust shapes, connectors and formatting without returning to Visio. This allows you to keep working on existing diagrams seamlessly and take advantage of Capable’s collaborative and editing features.

This works best for straightforward diagrams made from standard shapes, connectors, arrows and labels, such as basic flowcharts, process maps and simple architecture diagrams.
