- Description
- A Visio Stencil File (.vss) is a type of vector graphics format used to store shapes and stencils from Microsoft Visio. It contains a collection of shapes with relevant information such as size, shape, color, and text. The file can be used to create diagrams, flowcharts, and other types of visuals in Visio.
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
