Visio Grid

When zooming in and out Visio changes the grid size by default, it would be nice if it did this in powers of 2, so things would still be alligned on finer settings but no, it is fractional and changing zoom can move objects off the grid.

The simplest soloution is to use a fixed grid.
Viso -> Tools -> Ruler & Grid
Set
Horizontal Grid Spacing = fixed
Vertical Grid Spacing = fixed
Horizontal Minimum spacing 5 mm
Vertical Minimum spacing 5 mm

Visio is hard to use and expensive. Creately is a very useful diagramming tool which can illustrate any idea in graphical from. And its standalone versions are available on Mac/Windows and even linux. Its great Visio for Mac alternative. It has many diagram types including flowcharts, org charts, mind maps, uml, infogaphics etc.
