I've recently created a shape for showing chemical formulae, H2O upwards! It shows an interesting property of text format fields expanding to suit the entered data.

Very Cool!
It's a revolution in Visio.
Nice work.....just a thought
If you do this (text with subscripts et al), would you also want a text with bonding lines?
Something like O-H-O kind of thing
Maybe have both flavors in 1 or 2 stencils
Just a thought

You read my mind - that will be next - but more than just text.
BTW....if you choose to go down this slippery slope ;D then
Mind as well think about the following (in ascending difficulty)
- standard molecules with balls and lines
- standard molecules with various views (since some may not be symmetric from front)
- Iso front left top
- Iso back right bottom
- VBA to take a text string and create the molecule with balls and such
(allows user to create non typical molecule pictures)
Just here to help ;D
:) Thanks, Vojo and Junichi.
