/text/simpress/02/10120000.xhp lines;inserting arrows; inserting inserting; lines inserting; arrows dimension lines; drawing Arrows Open the Arrows toolbar, where you can add straight lines, lines with arrows, and dimension lines to the current slide or page. If you want, you can add an arrow after you draw a line by choosing Format - Line, and then selecting an arrow style from the Style box. Line Draws a straight line where you drag in the current document. To constrain the line to 45 degrees, hold down Shift while you drag. Icon Line Line Ends with Arrow Draws a straight line that ends with an arrow where you drag in the current document. To constrain the line to 45 degrees, hold down Shift while you drag. Icon Line Ends with Arrow Line with Arrow/Circle Draws a straight line that starts with an arrow and ends with a circle where you drag in the current document. To constrain the line to 45 degrees, hold down Shift while you drag. Icon Line with Arrow/Circle Line with Arrow/Square Draws a straight line that starts with an arrow and ends with a square where you drag in the current document. To constrain the line to 45 degrees, hold down Shift while you drag. Icon Line with Arrow/Square Line (45°) Draws a straight line that is constrained by angles of 45 degrees. Icon Line (45°) Line Starts with Arrow Draws a straight line that starts with an arrow where you drag in the current document. To constrain the line to 45 degrees, hold down Shift while you drag. Icon Line Starts with Arrow Line with Circle/Arrow Draws a straight line that starts with a circle and ends with an arrow where you drag in the current document. To constrain the line to 45 degrees, hold down Shift while you drag. Icon Line with Circle/Arrow Line with Square/Arrow Draws a straight line that starts with a square and ends with an arrow where you drag in the current document. To constrain the line to 45 degrees, hold down Shift while you drag. Icon Line with Square/Arrow Dimension Line Draws a line that displays the dimension length bounded by guides. Dimension lines automatically calculate and display linear dimensions. To draw a dimension line, open the Arrows toolbar, and click the Dimension Line icon. Move your pointer to where you want the line to start and drag to draw the dimension line. Release when finished. If you want the dimension line to be the same length as the side of a nearby object, hold down the Command Ctrl key while dragging. To constrain the dimension line to 45 degrees, hold down the Shift key while dragging. In %PRODUCTNAME Draw, a dimension line is always inserted on the layer called Dimension Lines. If you set that layer to invisible, you will not see any dimension line in your drawing.

Icon Dimension Line

Line with Arrows Draws a straight line with arrows at both ends where you drag in the current document. To constrain the line to 45 degrees, hold down Shift while you drag. Icon Line with Arrows
