Place shapes using the keyboard |
Note: Use Ctrl+Spacebar to switch which shape is placed. |

Automatically connect different shapes as you place them in the diagram space |
You can also place and connect graphics in a flowchart, but unlike shapes, graphics serve as communication aids and are not intelligent. See Graphics and Callout Lines. |
Click the shape, then hold the Ctrl key while you click and drag the shape by its handle across one or more swimlanes. |
