Changing default connector ends

[Sue Miller-Beers]

I am so frustrated with Visio. Sometimes, when I create a new flowchart, my
connectors are blue and since I can't figure out how to change the default
color, I have to change each one individually. This time, the color is black
(hurray!), but there is no arrow at the end of the connector. Again, I have
to change each connector individually. Can anyone tell me how I can change
the default line from a simple line to a line with an arrow at the end?

Thanks in advance for your help!

1. Individually ? Try a multiple select.
2. You could drag the changed connector into a stencil. But then you'll
have to resort to drag and drop in order to make the connections.

Philippe,

Thank you for the suggestion, it will save me some time, but, if I select
all, I still will have to "deselect" the lines that I do not want arrows on
and it does not solve my basic problem of figuring out how to change the
default line ends and line color.

Many thanks, WapperDude, that is exactly what I was looking for!
