Insert elbow arrow connector

[DashboardNovice]

I am having trouble with the elbow arrow connector. I have everything is the right place, but I just want to change the orientation of the arrow from up to right without altering the preceding lines.

How can I change only the direction of the arrowhead?

In the attached file see the arrowhead in the highlighted yellow box. I want it to point right towards the box that defines what an account is.

Yes. I am interested in the arrowhead in the B31 area. I want to change the direction to point towards the right.

Hi ,

See the file. Click on the connector , and then change the height and width using the spinners in the Format menu section.

I tried your suggestion. I was able to change the height and width, but the orientation of the arrow is still pointing up. I can't get it to point right like you have in your attached file.

Hi ,

I forgot to mention that changing the orientation is to be done first ; if you select the connector , and drag it around , it keeps changing its orientation as you move the mouse around. Once you have the orientation , the connector end will not be in the right place ; this is when you can use the method posted earlier to bring the connector end to its desired place.

Hi ,

I have uploaded an example workbook , which has 3 elbow arrow connectors of different sizes ; I have made the height the same as the width for all 3 connectors.

This is the tipping point ; click on any one connector , and then click on the Drawing Tools Format tab ; you will see the height and width of the selected connector in the Size section.

Now if you click on the arrow head , and increase the width slightly , so that it is more than the height , the orientation of the connector will change ; bring it back in so that the width is either equal or slightly less than the height ; the orientation will revert to its original one.
