How to change background with the help of shapes in Visio?

In this article, we will learn how we can change the background of Visio drawing. Before this, we have learned that how we can change the background but in this article, we will change the background with the help of shapes. 

For example, if our flowchart consists of three steps then we will put different shapes on each step so that we can understand the steps. 

In this way, we can learn how we can insert shapes and then how we will arrange them in Visio.

In the above image, we have inserted a background that is different totally. What we have done in the background of that Visio drawing? We have not just applied this type of background. We just have inserted three different shapes then fix on each side so that they look fancy and attractive for the reader.

Now we will go with step by step how we insert this different background of this flowchart.

First of all, we should have a flowchart.

As we can see that we have a flowchart right now and now we will insert shapes in this flowchart with different styles.

In the next step, we have to insert a shape. We can drag and drop from the shapes window or from tools in the home tab.

In this step, we insert a shape. Now, we will place this shape at the upper corner of the page.

We can resize the shape from the upper, lower, right, and left sides as we want we can increase the length of it.

As we can see that we have inserted one shape on the first step but we can't see the first step that was available before inserting this shape. Don't worry that step is available on the Visio drawing.

We just go with aligned shapes just put this shape Send it to the back then we will change the color of that shape into another color.

First of all, we will send this shape as a backward. 

We will select "Send it Back" then our shape automatically will be at the background work as a background of the flowchart.

As we can see that our shapes is converted into a background now we will change the background color to any other light color so that our flowchart looks batter after inserting the background.

For Changing the color of our background we just go in the home tab then shapes style then in the shapes style tab we can see that there is an option for the Fill. Then after expanding the fill optionwe can see many colors then we can change the color that looks batter for our backgorund.

We just select the gray color for it. Have a look at it.

As we can see that the background of our first step is changed to another background.

Similarly, we can insert the remaining steps then finally we will see that.

In this way, we can insert the shape and change the background with the help of shapes in Visio drawing.
