The SysML template for Microsoft Visio supports symbols of the OMG Systems Modeling Language (OMG SysMLTM) as specified in the OMG document ptc/06-05-04 (SysML final adopted specification). Details of the OMG SysML can be found on the official OMG SysML website at http://www.omgsysml.org.
If you discover omissions in the SysML template or have suggestions for improvements please contact me at ph@ phruby.com.

SysML Template for Visio 2007
The template for Visio 2007 contains the same shapes as the templates for Visio 2003, as Visio 2007 has almost the same functionality as Visio 2003, and there are mainly usability improvements.
Install: Create a subdirectory called 'SysML' under '...My DocumentsMy Shapes', that is, '...My DocumentsMy ShapesSysML'. Unzip the stencils and template into '...My DocumentsMy ShapesSysML'. Start Visio, click 'Tools' and 'Options'. In the 'Advanced' tab, click 'File Paths...' and type 'C:Document and Settings<user>My DocumentsMy Shapes' (i.e. without 'SysML') into the fields 'Stencils' and 'Templates'. Hint: the same directory is probably in the 'My Shapes' field. The template 'SysML 1.0' will appear in the 'SysML' template category.
If you'd like the SysML template to appear in the category 'Software and Database', together with other software templates, create a directory 'Software and Database', for example, '...My DocumentsMy ShapesSoftware and Database', and unzip the stencils and template into it.

SysML Template for Visio 2003
The template for Visio 2003 contains the same shapes as the templates for Visio 2000 and 2002. However, installation is more complicated than in previous versions of Visio, in order to be compatible with other Microsoft Office products.
Install: Create a subdirectory called 'SysML' in any directory, for example, '...My DocumentsMy ShapesSysML'. It can be any directory, except of the directory in which Visio 2003 stores its own stencils and templates. Unzip the stencils and template into this directory, i.e. into '...My DocumentsMy ShapesSysML'. Start Visio, click 'Tools' and 'Options'. In the 'Advanced' tab, click 'File Paths...' and type this directory without 'SysML', that is, 'C:Document and Settings<user>My DocumentsMy Shapes' into the fields 'Stencils' and 'Templates'. Restart Visio. The template 'SysML 1.0' will appear under the 'SysML' software category.
If you'd like the SysML template to appear under the 'Software' category together with other software stencils, use 'Software', instead of 'SysML' in the steps above.
The stencils and template are here: SysML1.0-Visio2003.zip.
SysML Template for Visio 2002
The template for Visio 2002 contains the same shapes as the templates for Visio 2000 and 2003, but installation is different.
Install: Create a folder, for example SysML, in the folder in which Visio 2002 keeps its solutions. Typically, it is the folder C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeVisio101033 Solutions. Unzip the stencils and template to the SysML folder. The template and all the stencils must be in the same folder.
The stencils and template are here: SysML1.0-Visio2002.zip
SysML Template for Visio 2000
The template for Visio 2000 contains the same shapes as the templates for Visio 2002 and 2003, but installation is different.
Install: Unzip the stencils and template to the folder in which Visio 2000 keeps stencils and templates. Typically, it is the folder C:Program FilesVisioSolutionsSoftware Diagram. All the stencils and the template must be in the same folder.
The stencils and template are here: SysML1.0-Visio2000.zip.
Future Versions of SysML Template
It is my intention to update the stencils whenever SysML is updated, or when I get some good suggestions from you. Please send me e-mail if you have any suggestions or found omissions in the stencil design. If you make any improvements yourself, please be so kind as to let me know.
Acknowledgements
This stencil would not be possible without Sandy Friedenthal of Lockheed Martin Corporation, who helped and supported me along the way and provided me superb guidance to SysML.
Last update of the stencils: November 20, 2006.
