Hi,

I am trying to create software architecture diagrams from inventory data. Since it is the main goal to have editable documents, Visio is a suitable solution. it would be great to use vsdx as the library.

What I was not able to find yet, is there a way to create new diagrams from scratch?

I found the description of altering existing files, but was not able to find a description of creating a completely new file, with new shapes.

You can create visio file manually with all shape with different names placed on one page that you required. use that file as template to create another visio diagram by adding new page and copy shape using name or if you know how to add new shape then add . at the last delete first page.
