Visio Introduction

Anne Bennett,
Associate
The course was very informative & interesting. Paul shared lots of useful information & tips. I had used Visio before but only what I managed to teach myself and now with the additional information I should be able to save a lot of time in creating process maps. Regular practice & use of Visio will improve the knowledge and understanding of what Visio can offer.

Training manual sample
Below are some extracts from our Visio training manuals.
In this unit, you will gain skills that allow you to control
shapes and connection tools which will help make creating diagrams easy.
Selecting Multiple Shapes
There are many ways to select more than one shape at a time.
The Multiple Select tool allows you to click on individual
shapes and it will hold the selection.
The other method to achieve this is to hold the shift key
down while selecting each shape.
The Lasso and Area Select allow multiple shapes to be
selected by one click and drag over the desired shapes.
Connecting Shapes
There are a number of ways to Connect shapes.
§
When you move over a shape on the page a pop up
menu allows you to choose a new shape, it will auto connect.
§
Use the connector tool from the Home ribbon and
select the Connector tool from the Tools Section.
Aligning Shapes
If the shapes need to be lined up either vertically or
horizontally use the Align button in the Arrange Section or Select the Position
Button to display the Align Options.
Distributing Shapes
Distribution of shapes controls the spacing between the
shapes to ensure the distance between the shapes is the same.
