Hello,
is there a way to copy/duplicate shapes?
The problem is that I have to add a ballon shape and if you open the visio file the ballon can’t moved manally. And I cant change the text in visio right. So I want to copy a working ballon shape instead of ading a new.
regards
Chris
Hi Chris,

You can also change the text of a shape. Please visit the documentation link here:
Please do let me know in case of any confusion or question.
Any update on this please? We are looking to have similar functionality except for we are copying shapes from one diagram to another!
