const xml = xmlManager.Add(xmlText);
const node = xml.GetNodes('/zoo/animal')[0];
const nodeValue = node.GetNodeValue();

const fill = Api.CreateSolidFill(Api.HexColor('#81a181'));
const stroke = Api.CreateStroke(0, Api.CreateNoFill());
const shape = Api.CreateShape('roundRect', Api.MillimetersToEmus(300), Api.MillimetersToEmus(130), fill, stroke);
shape.SetPosition(Api.MillimetersToEmus(20), Api.MillimetersToEmus(35));
