Visio for the web has many shapes that are organized into Shape sets. Each diagram has starting Shape sets. But you can also add Shape sets to the Shapes palette, so you can quickly access other shapes you want. For example, to create an informal process diagram, you can add the Basic Flowchart Shapes set.
Use the Shapes palette to add, view, and remove Shape sets.
