How do I register two pages in Visio so they align properly.

[Steverino]

I'm building a sequence of UI screens. I would like to step through them
without one page jumping slightly (jitter) from the previous. Doing it by
hand is tedious and error prone. Is there an automatic way to do this?

- You could put the frame for the UI on a background page.
- You could use the size position dialog to position the shapes.
- gridlines are another method for alignment.
- Use the align/distribute dialog.

You can also use a background page and place guidelines on it. Any
foreground page can then use the same guidelines.
