Fill team frame

[Huseyin Altun]

Hi,
How can I fill the team frame.
I am using visio 2007, when I set fill color to Team frame, nothing happens.

thanks in advance..

Hello Huseyin,

The Team Frame shape is set not to take a fill colour so that you can place
it over other shapes and still see them underneath. However if you want to
change this behaviour can try the following:

1) Select the Team Frame shape and click Show ShapeSheet on the Window menu.

2) The window you can now see represents the properties for the shape and
this is divided into sections, so scroll down to the section named Geometry
1.

3) The very first cell is named Geometry1.NoFill. Select this cell and and
change it to 0 or False.

4) Close the ShapeSheet window and you're done.

Bear in mind that as you can now set its fill colour you'll have to manage
its z-order (ie the way in which the shapes are stacked on top of each
other. To do this, select the Team Frame shape again and click
Shape/Order/Send to Back.

Hope that helps.

Best regards

John
