Shape Handling 179
• As you make the label text longer or shorter, the lines adjust their size to fit, without
changing the width of the overall design.
• Drag the end handles to move the ends and adjust the length of the line, just as you
do with arrows .
Chevron Bar SmartShape
The Chevron Bar is useful in presentations. See "INSERT" > "SHAPES" > "ARROWS..."
Chevron Bar smartshape
Drag on the different handles to add/remove chevron shapes, re-order, change the arrow
angles, etc. And of course just click on the text in the TEXT TOOL to edit the labels.
Flowline SmartShapes
Great for flowcharts, diagrams, exploded views, etc. The Flowlines behave just like
Arrows, in that you can change the heads and tails, apply rotation, thickness and so on -
as well as having 90° segments which you can drag to reposition. Find them in the
Arrows folder - "INSERT" > "SHAPE" > "ARROWS…"
