FAQs: Connecting Shapes with Arrows and Lines
Â
What does connecting shapes with arrows and lines enable me to do?
This feature allows you to visually link diagram elements—like flowchart shapes—in QuoteCloud. It’s essential for illustrating relationships, processes, hierarchies, and workflows.
How do I connect shapes in my diagram?
Use the diagram editor’s connector tool: click from one shape and drag to another to establish a connection. Arrows and lines will appear to indicate flow and direction.
What types of connectors can I use?
You can employ straight arrows, curved lines, or directional connectors to guide the viewer’s eye and clearly define process order or relationships.
Can I modify connector appearance?
Yes—you can customize connectors by changing line style (solid, dashed), thickness, and color to improve clarity or match your document’s visual theme.
How do arrows enhance flowchart clarity?
Arrows clearly denote direction, sequence, or hierarchy. They help readers follow logical progressions or understand how different parts of the diagram relate.
