connectors not working in canvas

[Chris Singer]

Actually they are kind of, but the elbow ones that bend
all over refuse to be modified.

O->O--

-->O

that is horrible.. but I'll explain, the "O"s are the text
boxes and all the straight lines are obviously
connectors. The X represents the place where you can move
that part of the connector either up or down, but when
ever I drag it up or down it just snaps back into place,
it doesn't move.

It's horribly frustrating and I am getting irate... and
it's Monday... please help.

thanks,
Chris

I tried unclicking "Snap Objects to Grid" and then moving it but to no
avail. I then tried messing with other options in the Grid settings,
like show gridlines and so on. Nothing is working yet. Any other
suggestions?

Hi Chris,

In what way to the connectors 'refuse to be modified'?
(i.e. what are you trying to accomplish)

Are you using right click and 'reroute'?

Are you using the yellow diamonds on a selected connector
to rebend the shape?

I am using the yellow diamonds to rebend the shape. Sorry I was vague.

Hi Chris,

Can you describe what you're trying to accomplish
and how the connectors are misbehaving in that regard?

Can you email me a .doc file where you're seeing this?
I'm not able to duplicate a problem with the connectors.
