Anyone here good at Visio?

[Deleted]

I created a background page and I'd like to hide it (like you can with an Excel tab).  Don't want it to show or print, etc.

i googled it and it seems like the only way I'm seeing is with changing 0/1 values in shape sheets....is there an easier way?

Are you trying to hide just the one tab or the entire tab row to stop people navigating between pages. I've done the latter before, but I'm not sure about just an individual tab.

I should add that I can't check on anything here as I don't have Visio at work. I can check on some things tonight for you if it isn't urgent and get back to the thread?

Just trying to hide the one tab, that is set up as a background tab.  It has the background design stuff I need on all of the other tabs.  But I don't want it to print or even be viewable when I send the file.

i can't figure out if there is a way to do a master template as a design like you can in PowerPoint.

no huge rush on this....I have several weeks to get the file finished....just thought someone out here might know how to do it.

Just had a look and I'm not sure you're going to be able to accomplish what you want. Obviously I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that there's isn't a good way of doing it in Visio. You can hide each page like you mentioned from you searches and you can even override the Ctrl+PageUp and the Ctrl+PageDown navigation, but there isn't a concept of master pages like Powerpoint has (that I can find anyway)

Dang. Oh well, thanks for checking though, I appreciate your assistance!
