Super! Thanks 🤩 A huge difference with JUST ONE CLICK . Great Demo Finally I found out the difference in 1) glued to a point & 2) glued to the box

Thanks for explaining this.

I still hate visio.

[@abu269]

Thanks for the tips. Is there a way to create loose / freehand connectors? I want to create multiple arrows going to and from a box but don't want them to be glued to the shape.

Do we have any option in Visio where .... the lines are highlighted based on the shape you choose... Means I have 5 Shapes in my visio ... then what I want is when hover or click on my shape-1 box... then I should be able to see the lines/connectors high lighted ....

[@kevinmanz6891]

You should have created them shapes in a different layer.

[@reinhardjesmart169]

thank you but how do i straighten the connector? i find it always comes a right angle type

[@reinhardjesmart169]

i want to straighten without going to straighten manually

[@LikeABossLearning]

try Design tab | Connectors in the Layout group | Select Right Angle, Straight Lines, or Curved Lines

Short attention span viewer here,,, thanks !

Love the contents. Thanks for keeping it short. Not a fan of the inaccurate terminology: Button - > node, anchor/connection point Glue - > connect, anchor, bind Words mean things, terminology determines how people think.

My Visio isn't behaving like this at all? I've got the latest O365 version

[@LikeABossLearning]

Hmm... my guess is that you're using the browser version instead of the desktop version.

[@skinnersbollox]

@@LikeABossLearning Hi there, I found the problem. It seems my glue was not activated in the layers. I changed this setting and now I can do all the connections as per your video.

@@skinnersbollox glad to hear it; hope the vid helps!

[@ronh1850]

Visio is ridiculous... frustrating that you basically have to take a mini-course to get the connectors the way you want them, in order to do real work. Ugh

I hear you... one of the many Microsoft technologies (12 versions of Windows 10???) that's overly complex by half
