Switch between shape and point connections

You can glue connectors from one point on a shape to another point on a different shape, or from an entire shape to another entire shape. You can also create connections in which one end of the connector is glued to a point on a shape and the other end of the connector is glued to an entire shape.

  1. Drag a connector end point away from the shape.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • To glue an endpoint of the connector to a connection point on a shape, drag the endpoint to one of the shape's connection points until a red box appears around the connection point.
    • To glue an endpoint of the connector to the entire shape, drag the endpoint toward the middle of the shape until a red box appears around the entire shape.
