Editing Visio Drawing within the Word Document

I am using MS Office 2016. (Office 365)
 

I have a Word document that has a Visio drawing embedded in it. I need to edit the Visio within the word document.

I right click the Visio drawing and click Edit option, It will open the Visio Application. 

Is any option available for that.(Editing visio within word document)

How can I do that without open the Visio application? 

I want like this.

Thank you.

You can not edit embed Visio document without open Visio application! Do you have installed Visio at your PC?

If Yes, remember when you change embed visio diagram in word documents, you make changes only in local word's copy of this diagram. Not in source visio document, from where diagram was embed to word document!

Just now try options: Edit and Open.

Open

Visio application open in new window. You have full size window.

Edit

You get mixed window. MS Word it is all which placed above ribbon. And most part is MS Visio. Like as on your screenshot! It is not MS Word ribbon.

Also you can enter in Edit mode just double click on  embed visio diagram.

I just want to know the option. In MS 2010 it's shown(visio diagram opened into small rectangle) . Why MS 2016 not shown (This is new feature -visio diagram opened into Visio Application). Is there any option (visio diagram opened into small rectangle).
