change position of text on connectors
Massimo,
After you have entered text in the connector's box, click away from the connector. Then click once on that connector, and notice that there is a yellow diamond in the center (where the text is). Click the diamond and drag it away from the connector to move the text. Hope this helps.

Hi Doug,
thanks for your reply. On my connectors there was not such a yellow diamond, but after a few attempts I managed to move the text using the Text BlockTool. cheers, Massimo "DougG" wrote: Massimo, After you have entered text in the connector's box, click away from the connector.

change position of text on connectors
I, like Doug, can not locate a yellow diamond and I can't figure out how to
move the text the way Massimo has. Anyone have any other suggestions? Step-by-step... Thanks. Wanda "Massimo" wrote: Hi Doug, thanks for your reply.

The yellow diamond feature to move text is only available on certain
connectors, and can be added to ones that you create, but the Text Block tool is probably easier "Wanda" wrote in message ...

David, thank you. Would it possible to ask you to provide more detail as to
how you can add the diamond feature to the connector and which connectors you can do this to. I am not a seasoned user so the more explicit you can be, the more helpful it will be. Thanks kindly for your time again.
