Visio 2007 Exchange Server Add-In

June 27, 2008 By Visio Guy 11 Comments

Read Full ArticleIf you are an Exchange administrator, you might have worked with Exchange Management tools. And while you might enjoy the power and flexibility of these tools, you might be missing the ability to get a graphical overview of user mailbox details.

Now, I’m not an Exchange administrator, but I get the feeling that this thing is probably pretty cool for those of you who are…

Oblique Connectors For Your 3D Diagrams

October 29, 2007 By Visio Guy 43 Comments

Read Full ArticleVisio network shapes have gone “3D”, but Visio connectors have decidedly not…

…unless you’re the guys behind the creation of the Zeus ZXTM Appliance Network Stencil. Several readers have noticed the cool isometric connectors that the KnowledgeHub guys used in their sample illustration, and want to get ‘hold of ’em.

We’re not sure where the KH folks got those connectors, but a little light bulb went * bing * inside our Visio Guy heads as we remembered yet another an unfinished prototype gathering dust on our HD. Ah yes, Oblique Connector.vsd, from long, long ago…

Audio Visual Components Shapes

December 15, 2006 By Visio Guy 16 Comments

Read Full Article

Through the VGOBN (Visio Good Ol’ Boys Network) I recently received a finely-crafted Audio-Visual Shapes Visio stencil, full of shapes that you can use to layout your home theater wiring projects. The stencil is comprised of various terminal connectors, such as RCA Audio and RCA Video terminals, as well as various shapes for the back-plate and functional groups.

Many thanks to Tom Underhill for these shapes. Tom is a very smart engineer who used to work for Visio Corporation, and now does incredible things for Microsoft. You are welcome to send Tom praise and comments at “t-under-hill@g-mail.com” but remove all three of the hyphens first.

Thinkpad Network Shape

November 24, 2006 By Visio Guy 19 Comments

ThinkPad Network ShapeIf you’re an IBM ThinkPad fanatic like me and the folks over at forum.thinkpads.com — or used to be before Lenovo removed the red stripes from the buttons — then you’ll appreciate having a real laptop shape for your diagrams.

I’ve created a fully over-drawn ThinkPad laptop Visio network shape that’s sure to bloat your file sizes, but look really cool on your 2400dpi color laser printer. It’s got all the normal features of Visio’s network shapes: a whole slew of custom properties and text that can be moved via a little, yellow control handle.

Hope you enjoy it!

USB Stick Shape

November 7, 2006 By Visio Guy 12 Comments

USB Stick ShapeSo Steve popped up on MSN Messenger a few months ago and told me he needed a USB stick shape that matched the cool 3D network shapes in Visio 2003.

Of course this was annoying — what am I? The Visio Guy? But then I remembered how he manages to save me big $$$ on my ThinkPads. And since I was chatting with him on a T43p, I figured it was the least I could do 🙂

Steve has enjoyed a competitive advantage — being the only person with this shape for many months — but now his patent has run out and I’m sharing it with you!
