Creating Company Branded Visio Pages in SI5 - D-Tools Forum

11-19-2008, 04:02 PM

I have "successfully" created (after copying and pasting) a version of the Smart Frame stencil that will make a good looking design for our young company. Now that that is done, I am interested in placing it into a Visio sheet. To begin, I am opening an existing sheetset. But, I am not figuring out how to yank off the stock drawing so that I can place the updated design on the blank sheet.

I suspect this is a very newbie question with a simple answer.

Okay, so I followed Seth's webcast and updated the Background Title Page. My next question is how to make the aspect ratio correct. My stencil is fine and when I insert it onto the page, the insertion is stretched. Do I want to make an adjustment in Page Setup?

Also, in order to create a custom sheetset, i.e. a company coversheet, legend page, contact page, etc. how do I do that? I mean, is there no way to create an independent page, for example, where would I insert the Cover Tile page from the DT Annotations Stencils, without it being duplicated across the various views?

Okay, back to reports while I await a reply...

BTW, DTU rocked this year!
