Title: Mystery green boxes - shape boxes?
Post by: a_gunslinger on January 19, 2017, 07:48:28 PM
Depending on where I place an element a green box appears.  It doesn't seem to have any associated object associated with it.  And in a select all it doesnt appear.  What are these, can I make them go away, and what are they called so I can read up on them?  See pic attached.

Thanks

I doubt this is a Visio problem. Check that your video drivers are up to date.

could see if saving in old visio format makes a difference (true shape somehow or visio engine getting creative).
or save as pdf or png/jpeg to see if green goes with it
