Visio Web maxed out

Anonymous

I've created an organisation chart in Visio for web with approx 60 shapes. Now getting an error, screenshot below.

I have no where near 1000 shapes, and there is no desktop version of Visio for Mac.

Any thoughts on how to proceed? thanks

Dear ORTF,

Thanks for posting in Microsoft community. We are glad to help you.

Some shapes can contain a lot of shapes, they are like containers with dozens of shapes. Sorry for the inconvenience caused. I understand that you have the concerns how Vison for Web constitutes a share in your diagram file. I suggest you can send this feedback via Visio · Community (microsoft.com). It is the most efficient way to let the product team know about this problem.

Thanks for your understanding and cooperation! Hope you keep safe and healthy always.

Sincerely,

Sean | Microsoft Community Moderator

thanks Sean.

I don't know what you mean by, "I understand that you have the concerns how Vison for Web constitutes a share in your diagram file."

The shapes I'm using are the most basic I can find. See screenshot. Yet you appear to be suggesting that these shapes contain at least 20 component shapes? That doesn't make sense. But let's say it is true, then can you recommend any shapes for an organisation diagram that use less than 20 component shapes?
