RE: Drawing shapes

Hi Joanna

There are several ways you can do this.

1. Drag a shape from the stencil on the left and drop it on the drawing page.

2. Use the Drawing Tools to draw lines, rectangles, circles.
3. Use the Freeform tool to draw custom lines
4. Use the pencil tool to modify and join lines into one shape.

Regards

Richard

Visio tip:

Using the Quick Access Toolbar in Visio 2010

The Quick Access Toolbar is included in virtually every Office product, including Visio 2010 as well as Outlook 2010, Word 2010, Excel 2010, and PowerPoint 2010.

You will find the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left side of the window. To begin, click the Customize button (it's the little black arrow at the end of the toolbar).

Simply click the commands you want to include.

Virtually any command can be added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Click the More Commands option and a new window will open from where you can browse the commands including those not on the ribbon.
