Visio class diagram

I'm using Visio class diagram.

  1. Is there a way to automatically layout the elements on the canvas?

  2. I want to group a few classes under some square to visually show that they belong to the same package. How to do it?

  1. The shape menu has the option "Layout Shapes"
  2. Add a rectangle, send it to back. Then layout and align the shapes above the rectangle, then select the shapes and the rectangle and hit Ctrl-G to group them.

Yes. Under the Shape menu, click Lay Out Shapes.

Just draw a square around the items in question, then Send To Back so that the square is in the background rather than the foreground.
