July 19, 2010 By Visio Guy 2 Comments

Visio 2010 Premium introduces powerful mechanisms for validating diagrams to insure graphical and semantic correctness.

Radial Elements Tool

November 5, 2009 By Visio Guy 27 Comments

radial-elements-toolIf you create your own Visio shapes or make drawings that have elements arranged circularly, then you may have experienced frustration.

Visio has the tools to draw circular-arrays of objects, but learning to do it takes time. There are no direct “arrange stuff in circles” functions. You have to cleverly use other functionality to get the job done.

To make things easier for you and me, I invented the Radial Elements Tool solves some of these problems. With this tool, you can create circular arrays of customizable tick marks in seconds!
