sampData (Sample Data)

This element defines the sample data model which is used to pre-populate a diagram with placeholder data in order for the diagram to display itself in the user interface which shows all of the available diagrams to a user.

[Example: Consider the following example of a sampData element within a DrawingML diagram:

<sampData>

   <dataModel>

      <ptLst>

         <pt modelId="0" type="doc"/>

         <pt modelId="1">

            <prSet phldr="1"/>

         </pt>

         <pt modelId="2">

            <prSet phldr="1"/>

         </pt>

         <pt modelId="3">

            <prSet phldr="1"/>

         </pt>

         <pt modelId="4">

            <prSet phldr="1"/>

         </pt>

         <pt modelId="5">

            <prSet phldr="1"/>

         </pt>

      </ptLst>

      <cxnLst>

         <cxn modelId="6" srcId="0" destId="1" srcOrd="0" destOrd="0"/>

         <cxn modelId="7" srcId="0" destId="2" srcOrd="1" destOrd="0"/>

         <cxn modelId="8" srcId="0" destId="3" srcOrd="2" destOrd="0"/>

         <cxn modelId="9" srcId="0" destId="4" srcOrd="3" destOrd="0"/>

         <cxn modelId="10" srcId="0" destId="5" srcOrd="4" destOrd="0"/>

      </cxnLst>

      <bg/>

      <whole/>

   </dataModel>

</sampData>

In this example we define the sample data to consist of five nodes all attached to a document point type node. When displayed, this diagram will show five shapes in the diagram. end example]
