Drawing arrows on the stage plot

Where the arrows are and how to use them.

Use arrows to point a note at a spot on the stage, to link two items or to help describe other details visually.

They are at the top of the Text category in the sidebar: a single arrow, a double arrow and a dashed arrow. Drag one onto the stage.

The Text category of the sidebar with the Arrows section highlighted: single, double and dashed

Click the arrow to select it. A dot appears at each end:

  • Drag a dot to lengthen, shorten or turn the arrow. The other end stays where it is, and the head keeps its size.
  • Close to horizontal, vertical or 45°, the arrow snaps into place.
  • To set it freely at any angle, hold CTRL (Cmd on a Mac) while you drag.

Above the arrow are its buttons: delete, duplicate, layer up, layer down and color.
