Hello,
I use Visio to create diagrams. When I search for shapes with the keyword "router," I get a number of results with routers in box form or more symbolically (cylinder with arrows).
However, when I open the "Network and Devices" stencil, I only have network equipment in box form. No symbolic shapes.
When I look for the stencil of the symbolic shape found in the search, I see that it belongs to netsym_m.vss, but despite searching for this file on my PC, I can't find it.
Questions: how should I proceed to access the entire stencil that contains the symbolic shapes? Why do I only have access to a few stencils by default when the integrated database seems to be much larger based on the search results?
Thanks in advance!
