In my Visio Stencil Tree I have three drop downs

Standard
Manufacturer
Custom

I recently downloaded the Middle Atlantic Visio Title Blocks and would like to add them to the stencil tree. Middle Atlantic has like 20-30 individual vss files for each category of parts so I would prefer to have them listen in a drop down titled middle Atlantic or make them a sub tree of equipment racks.

Is there a way to organized the Stencil Tree? Can you nest sub categories?

To place and name your custom stencil under a Category follow these steps.

1) Look for the Stencils folder (for windows vista go to: C:\ProgramData\D-Tools\SI5\Visualizations\Stencils) (for windows xp go to: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\D-Tools\SI5\Visualizations\Stencils)
2) Copy and Paste the “Middle Atlantic Products.vss” file in the same folder routing
3) Rename the Copy file to the desire name.
Note: To keep the new sub stencil under…
Manufacturer:
- Keep the base-name “Middle Atlantic Products”
- Add with no spaces “_”
- Add with no spaces the name
…as: Middle Atlantic Products_Equipment Racks
Custom:
- Rename as desire
4) From the Stencil Tree select “Middle Atlantic Products_Equipment Racks” and right click on it
5) Then select “Display Docked Stencil”
6) From the Stencil window right click on the Stencil’s name and select “Edit Stencil”
7) Delete or add shapes as desire.
