Using NetZoom Research Services in Visio

NetZoom's web services use a search interface that is similar to the standard NetZoom search palette. You can search by manufacturer and other criteria. You may also select how to view search results.

   
How to Search
  1. Type in your search term and press Enter or click the arrow to search.
   
  2. Each result includes basic manufacturer and product information, as well as the shape style. With each shape, you can use the Actions button to open a Visio stencil or add a shape to your active workspace, for example.
    Note : Available actions vary based on which NetZoom service you are using.
   
    Note: To use a shape, you must open a Visio stencil and drag the shape from this stencil.
  3 If your search does not return any results, you can refine your search criteria using the NetZoom interface.
