This course shows users how to use the Find function to locate shapes on Visio stencils and how to create a new stencil including the shapes they need. It also explains how to set shape behavior, which controls the way the shape is highlighted, resized, or printed with the document, and how the shape functions when grouped with other shapes.
- Find a shape using basic and advanced search techniques
- Create a custom stencil
- Establish shape behavior settings using the Behavior tab of the Behavior dialog box
- Establish shape behavior using the Double-Click tab of the Behavior dialog box
- Establish shape behavior using the Placement tab of the Behavior dialog box.

This course explains how to define and apply styles, which are predefined formats that can be applied to multiple objects. Users will also learn about ShapeSheets, spreadsheets which contain information about each shape in the drawing, and the procedures for modifying a ShapeSheet to include custom properties. Finally, this course explains templates, which combine a drawing page with stencils and settings. Users will learn how to use existing templates and create new templates that include the stencils and settings they need.
- Define and apply a style
- Define custom properties for a shape
- Create a drawing using an existing template
- Create a new template

This course explains how to make complex diagrams easier to construct and understand by adding pages and layers to break the diagram into multiple sections. It also explains how to edit an existing stencil, how to create a new stencil master, and how to create new stencils based on that master. Finally, it explains how to create a stencil that includes all the shapes from all the pages and layers of the user's document.
- Create a multi-page Visio drawing
- Create a multi-layer Visio drawing
- Edit an existing stencil
- Create a new master stencil
