As is usually the answer with Visio, someone could write a utility in VB/VBA or C# that would insert this behavior into selected Visio shapes. But it's not super-straightforward. Hi Cody,

For my companies process maps, we require all shapes to remain at the default size even if the text is going to spill out of the box. Other then selecting ever shape I put on a page and disabling the auto-resize option, how can I make this a default for all shapes? Thanks! Cody This is a great feature for those who want it.
