print length width of a shape

[NewUser]

How do I print the length and/or width of a shape ?

Depends on what you are referring to.

If you want to include the length/width with the shape so it prints when the
drawing is printed, then you can use Insert Field from the menu to add these
values to a text block. You may need to group a text only shae to your
original shape if you want the information in a different location than the
shape's text block.

If you want a seperate report listing shapes and h/w then you may have to
delve into the programming side of Visio.

You can look at the dimension shapes in the deimension stencil also.
