How to Delete Name and Title Fields in Visio 2013?

Question

_{Thursday, May 14, 2015 6:33 PM}

In previous versions of Visio, there was only one text box in the different position shapes.  In 2013, there are two fields Name and Title.  I am unable to change the shape of these fields, so I would like to delete them and have one big text box again.  How can I do that?  Is there a way to delete the name and title fields completely?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi,

According to your description, I assume you are using organization chart diagram. Am I right? If yes, the organization chart diagram has been updated, we can see "what's new" with the article:

If you want to use the shape like the previous versions of Visio, please see this image:

Right-click shape=>properties=>Define=>Add/remove the filed which you want.

Hope it's helpful.
