Connecting shapes
I have 2 text boxes I want to connect to each other with a pipeline shape.
When I move the mouse over the points on the text box there are no connection points on the text box shape. What am I doing wrong? -- NS |

What am I doing wrong? Nothing. The text boxes are, I suppose, really just that, text boxes, not designed to be connected to anything. But you can add your own connection points if you want to, easy to do with the built-in connection point tool or via the shapesheet. Or use a shape that already has connection points available, e.g. the Rectangle shapes from the Basic Shapes stencil. This shape has 5 connection points pre-defined and you add text by double-clicking it. Border and fill styles can both be changed via the standard menus. -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd.
