I've created a new template. How do I get the template to show up when I want to create a new drawing.
I did a search on .vstx and found this folder. I saved it here, but it still doesn't show up.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15\Visio Content\1033
This template will be the base for many drawings and I would like to be able to select it quickly while in meetings.
Thanks
In 2013 you need to go to Options/Advanced and scroll down to the bottom where it has a button for File Locations. Add a folder for templates and then save the template to that folder. Your template will show up in the New under Categories instead of Featured.
On the File menu, click Save As. In the Save as type list, click
Template (*.vst). In the File name box, type a name for your
template. Click the arrow next to Save, and make sure that Workspace
is selected (checked). In the Save in list, select the folder in
which you want to save the template.
Tip If you want the template to appear in the list that Visio displays when you click New on the File menu, save the template in the Solutions folder or one of its subfolders.
Note In Visio 2003, click the arrow next to Save, and make sure that Workspace is selected. In Visio 2007, click Save workspace on the Summary tab in the Properties window.
Click Save.

Save your template as a Visio template (.vst file) in whatever location you want for your custom templates. Then you have a choice.
As Matt616 says, you could go to Options/Advanced in Visio 2013, click on "File Locations" and then enter your location as the location for templates. If you do this, then when you want to create a new drawing, your custom templates will appear under the Categories tab. The trouble with this is that the Categories tab is already full of other stuff.
As a (possibly better) alternative, go to Options/Save in Visio 2013 and enter your location as "Default personal templates location". If you do this, then when you want to creat a new drawing, there will be a new tab above the list of templates, called "Personal". Click this and you will see just your custom templates and no other stuff. Also, templates in this tab are pinnable (which doesn't seem to work in the "Categories" tab) and any templates that you pin will appear under "Featured" in future.

I am developing a RCP application that creates and shows chart. I have already developed the chart creation part. So now my goal is to when my runtime eclipse starts the package explorer already has the .csv file based on which i am creating chart. Now i want to right click on the .csv file and "Open with" should have an option called "ChartView" that on click will create a view with the chart which defines the selected file.
So how can i create a new option in "Open With" category that will create a new view on click. I tried to search this issue but unfortunately did not find any clue. Please help. Thanks
The "Open With" category is populated by the list of Editors that say they can open the file. You add an editor using the org.eclipse.ui.editors extension point.

I would like the current folder tab to automatically update whenever I open a new .m file in the editor. So the current folder tab will always be open to the folder of the file being displayed in the editor. Is this supported in Matlab? I know Visual Studio has a feature like this.
MATLAB doesn't do that. Perhaps this might be close enough for you though: if you enable the Document Bar in the editor (if it's hidden, go Desktop menu->Document Bar->Bar Position->Select a Position). Now open a file in the editor. If you right-click on its element in the Document Bar, there's an option to change the current folder to the location of the file. So not automatic, but only one click away.
I am creating plugin over Eclipse. I know how to create new project with default folders underneat. Not when a user selects this default folder and right click, the new context menu should show my_editor entry to be create under this folder.
Thanks,

You cannot place there your editor, what you can do is to create a "New-Wizard", for details see http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_add_my_wizard_to_the_New,_Import,_or_Export_menu_categories%3F.
how to define a new wizard and http://blog.cypal-solutions.com/2008/07/how-to-create-new-file-wizard.html how to create the wizard ui that creates a new file which can be opened with your editor.
And last but not least you need a shortcut to make it available directly under the "New" Entries, see http://blogs.itemis.de/stundzig/archives/759
is there a way to select a folder and somehow expand all the child folders of the selected folder? It would be very useful.
The issue that I imagine is that because in Zend Studio php files are expandable also so they can show their classes namespaces methods and etc if there is a way to expand a folder and all its subfolders it shouldn't expand php files too.
Thanks in advance :)
In the project view, this feature does not exists.
However, you can right click on your top folder then click "search". This will open a search window. Simply press the "search" button without any search field entered and another window will appear with the results. In this window, you have a small "expand all" button in the top corner.
You can also right click on your top folder in that window and the "expand all" option will be displayed there too.
I have an old .dot file with a few dozen styles in it.
I need to place them into another .dot file that I received. Is there a better way to get them in there than manually recreating each style?
There is a 'Style Organizer' tool within Word which will let you copy styles from one document to another if they are both open at once.
In Word 2007:
Open the styles dialog (Home tab -> Styles -> Bottom Right button).
Click the 'manage styles' button.
Click 'Import/Export...'
I can't remember what the option is in Word 2003. I think it was Tools -> Style Organizer or similar.
Quick MSO 2003 tip for transferring styles from the current document to another document. The Organizer UI shows the currently open document on the left and Normal.dot on the right. Hitting the dropdown on the right doesn't give you anything other than Normal.dot. Quoi??
Hit the right hand Close File button. This will then be replaced by an Open File ... command button. Select any file you want to from there. Mind the file type. MSOs defaiult is .dot.
Cheers
Use the "Styles" tab in the "Organizer" (menu "Tools" -> "Templates and Add-Ins" -> "Organizer") to copy the styles.
This is the way to transfer your styles & formatting between two documents:
Go to Tools > Templates & Add-Ins...
Click Organizer button...
Cheers
Laura's answer helped me to find it in MS Word 2003. I clicked on Tools, Templates and Add-Inns, Organizer, then Styles. I just highlighted what I wanted from either side and click on Copy.
Thanks Laura. Which I could vote you up.
