FlexSim 2017 and Visio

Does this feature still work with later FlexSim 2016 or later? I opened the flexsim template in Visio 2013, but I did not see the options like it shows in the help page under the line "visio will look like this ...drag objects from the stencil into the model space to arrange their layout."

Software Version:

FlexSim 17.0.0

visio

The feature hasn't changed from the FlexSim side. This isn't a question of whether it works with FlexSim 2016 or later, but rather whether Visio 2013 can open the FlexsimTemplate.vst and FlexsimStandardObjects.vss files that were built using an older version of Visio.

You may need to adjust settings in Visio so that it can open those old files. If it gives you an error message, try following the suggestions in the message box.
