Use the Line Tool to create straight or diagonal lines with optional arrowheads on both ends. To draw a line, click and hold down the left or right mouse button where you want the line to begin. Drag the cursor to where you want the line to end and release the mouse button. A line connecting these two points will be drawn. Set the attributes for the line’s color, width and style using the Style Palette.


You can draw perfectly horizontal or vertical lines by holding down the Shift key while drawing or resizing the line.


To add an arrowhead, right click the line to display the Line Properties screen and add arrowhead to one or both ends. The size of the arrowhead depends on the width of the line.
