Aspose.Diagram for Python
Overview
How to Create Flowchart Style Organization Chart in VSTM File Using Python
In order to create flowchart style organization chart in VSTM file, we’ll use
API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use API for Python platform. You can download its latest version directly from
Steps for Create Flowchart Style Organization Chart in VSTM Files in Python
Creating flowchart style organization chart with
APIs can be done with just few lines of code.
- Create a diagram from stencil.
- Select Page via its id
- Add organization node shapes to page.
- Add connectors to page to connect shape and its parent.
- Auto layout by invoking layout mothod
- Call the save() method and pass the file name (full path) and format (VSDX) as a parameter.
- Now you can open and use the VSDX file in Microsoft Office, Adobe PDF or any other compatible program.

VSTM What is VSTM File Format?
Files with VSTM extension are template files created with Microsoft Visio that support macros. Unlike VSDX files, files created from VSTM templates can run macros that are developed in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code. A template file can be created in order to provide basic settings of the document that can be utilized to generate further documents with these settings. Visio files are used to create drawings that contain visual objects, flow charts, UML diagram, information flow, organizational charts, software diagrams, network layout, database models, objects mapping and other similar information. Files generated using Visio can also be exported to different file formats such as PNG, BMP, PDF and others.
