I used to use Visio years ago (2003 version), recently installed it again(2016 version) to make some technical drawings. But it has been frustrating to say the least.

What i wish is that the "page" starts @ 0,0 meaning that the left top most pixel is 0.0 (like in paint). So that when i place my Rectangle @ 0,0 it ends up in the top right corner touching both borders...instead i get this :

Is there a way to adjust this?

And will the grid also adjust to start there? so i won't get this weird half grid row in front of it? like so:

I honestly don't get it that there is no default template for something as simple as this :|

You need to change the position of the zero point in the ruler. See Source Change the ruler measurement units in Visio - Visio for instructions.

Yes. The grid origin is the same as the ruler zero point, but can be set independently. See Show, hide, or change the grid in Visio - Visio for instructions.
