|
|
Hi!
I'm drawing a flowchart for a project with OO Draw and it's really a lot easier than I thought it would (having only tried the horrible draw-stuff in Windows Word before).
But ofcourse I've ran into some small problems
I try to draw a choice-diamond and then have 2 routes going out from it . . One "yes" and one "no". I want the yes and no text to be right at the start of the connector, near the diamond.
But when I draw the connectors and double-click on them I'm not given a choice of where the text should end up. It always end up at the middle of the connector.
A simple sketch of what I want:
<>*-------------[]
*
|
|
|
[]
But I get this:
<>------*-------[]
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
[]
Legend:
<> = choice-diamond
[] = end-point of connector
- and | = connector-lines
* = text of connector.
Is there any way to tell Draw where I want the connector text?
At the moment I work around it by typing all the text in seperate text-boxes, but then when I move around my diamond the text doesnt follow

| Enter the text for the connector and then, with the connector selected, click Format -> Text. Change the 'Text anchor' and 'Spacing to borders' as required. |
