Connector on the Schematic toolbar allows you to place connectors anywhere that you need them. You can connect lines, circles, symbols, or points in free space.

There are special connector styles that you can use in the diagram. Some examples in the Process Flow template include Primary Line, Secondary Line, and Electric Signal. On the Connector ribbon, you can click the style that you want in the Style box.

On the Connector ribbon, you can also select the line start and line end terminators that you want. The following connectors display some of the different types of terminators that you can apply.

Some symbols are created with connect points. When you attach a connector to a connect point, the connector automatically attaches to the point at a predefined angle. Otherwise, the connector locates and attaches to a keypoint or point along any elements in the symbol.

The connect points appear as red circles with Xs. The keypoints appear as gray circles with Xs.

If you press Alt while drawing a connector, the connector attaches to a connect point at any angle.
