Create a New Master Icon

This part provides information for adding a new master icon to a stencil that can represent a custom AgileShape.

  1. Close AgilePoint Envision and leave MS Visio open as shown below.



  2. Click File > Open.

  3. Navigate to the folder where the VSS files are stored (e.g. C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\1033\Solutions\AgilePoint) and open the new stencil (i.e. IT Assets Group 1).

  4. Right-click in the new stencil pane and click New Master.

  5. Give the new master a descriptive name (e.g. Procurement Algorithm). It is recommended to choose Normal (32 x 32) for the icon size and to leave the behavior checkboxes unchecked.

  6. Click OK.
  7. Right-click on the Procurement Algorithm activity in the stencil pane and click Edit Master > Edit Icon Image.

    NOTE: Icons are generally created by your computer graphics design department. It is recommended to use 32-bit icon images. You can either draw one by hand or copy and paste an existing icon.

  8. Either draw an icon pixel by pixel, or simply copy and existing icon and paste it here.



  9. When finished, close the icon window.
