Long-click to open the Connectors floating toolbar, where you can add connectors to objects in the current slide. A connector is a line that joins objects, and remains attached when the objects are moved. If you copy an object with a connector, the connector is also copied. There are four types of connector lines: Standard (90-degree angle bends) Line (two bends) Straight Curved
When you click a connector and move your mouse pointer over a filled object, or the edge of an unfilled object, connection points appear. A connection point is a fixed point where you can attach a connector line. If you want, you can add a custom connection point, called a glue point, to an object. To draw a connector line, click a connection point on an object, drag to a connection point on another object, and then release. You can also drag to an empty part of you document and click. The unattached end of the connector is locked in place, until you drag the end to a different location. To detach a connector, drag either end of the connector line to a different location. To change the connector type, select the connector, and choose Format – Connector. Use the Object bar to modify the line properties of the connector.
