Arrows and lines

Prezi includes arrows and lines that are attractive and useful for many purposes. You can easily adjust the color and length of an arrow or line to make it fit your purpose.

How to do it…

  1. Go to the Insert menu.
  2. Choose Draw arrow or Draw line.
  3. Place the cursor on the canvas where you want your arrow/line to begin.
  4. Holding the left mouse button down, drag to where you want the arrow/line to end.
  5. Let go of the mouse button when your arrow/line is long enough.

Take a look at the drop-down menu shown in the following screenshot:

How it works…

Once the arrow/line is on the canvas, you can adjust its placement, length, width, curvature, and direction.

Selecting the arrow/line produces three square handles on the arrow/line. Use these handles to adjust the length and curvature of the arrow/line. Take a look at the arrow shown in the following screenshot:
