Autoshape Arrows-Erratic movement

[shawnaree]

I have a Word doument that I've used for severals that
includes several autoshape arrows. Our sofware was
updated last Spring. Ever since, when I attempt to drag
& drop a selected arrow with the mouse, or use Ctrl-arrow
for more detailed movement...all I get is erratic
placement of that arrow that I can't control. If I drop
it in a particular location, it moves .5 - 1 inch
elsewhere. When I use any Ctrl-arrow combination the
arrow only moves down in approx 1/2 inch intervals. Any
suggestions?

Hi shawn,

If you select Draw|Grid on the drawing toolbar, you can reduce the grid size
so that the movements work in smaller increments (eg I use 0.01cm).

Cheers

Or you can override the grid by pressing Alt while dragging.
