◉ add-in tab. Answer: A tab on the Visio ribbon that is present only
when a Visio add-in is running—for example, the Org Chart tab for
the Organization Chart add-in.
◉ anchor shape. Answer: The primary shape when multiple shapes
are selected. If you select multiple shapes at one time by using a
bounding box, this object is the one farthest to the back (see Z-

first one you select.
This object affects the results of alignment, spacing, and numbering
operations.

◉ Auto Size. Answer: A Visio option that automatically expands or
contracts the drawing page as you move shapes across page
boundaries.
◉ AutoAdd. Answer: Occurs when you drop a shape onto an existing
dynamic connector that is glued to two shapes. Visio disconnects the
dynamic connector from the second shape, glues it to the shape you
dropped, and automatically adds a new dynamic connector, which it
then glues to the new shape and to the second shape.
◉ AutoConnect. Answer: A Visio feature that glues a dynamic
connector from one shape to another with a single click;
◉ AutoDelete. Answer: Occurs when you delete a shape that is
connected to two other shapes with dynamic connectors. Visio
removes the deleted shape, deletes the dynamic connector glued to
, the second shape, and then glues the remaining dynamic connector
to the second shape.
◉ background. Answer: An area of the drawing page that does not
contain any shapes.
◉ background page. Answer: A Visio page that can be attached both
to foreground pages and to other similarly pages of this type. Shapes
on a page of this type appear on other pages to which this type of
page is attached;
◉ Backstage view. Answer: A full-page UI view that exposes file-level
functionality in Office applications. This is a companion feature to
the Office ribbon and helps users discover and use the features that
fall outside of the authoring features on the ribbon.
◉ bounding box. Answer: A temporary rectangular shape created by
clicking the background of a page and dragging to select one or more
shapes. By default, Visio selects all shapes that are fully contained
within the area of this object.
◉ business process. Answer: A collection of tasks and activities that
leads to a desired result; also known as a work process.
