A theme is not applied to a shape when the shape is pasted into a page that has a theme applied in Visio 2007

Article ID: 924402

Article Last Modified on 10/15/2007



APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Office Visio Professional 2007
  • Microsoft Office Visio Standard 2007



SYMPTOMS

When you copy a shape and then paste the shape into a Microsoft Office Visio 2007 drawing that has a theme applied to the page, the theme is not applied to the shape. Instead, the attributes of the shape do not change.

This behavior may occur even though the Apply theme to new shapes check box is selected on the Theme task pane.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs if you copy the shape before you apply the theme to the page.

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, reapply the theme to the page. Do this only when you want all the shapes on the page to have the same theme applied.
