How to convert Straight line into Curved line in Microsoft Visio?

In this article, we will learn how we can change straight lines into curved lines in Microsoft Visio. Sometimes we are working with our flowchart then we insert a right-angle line that looks boring then we want to convert them into a curve line. Now, we will go step by step in converting a right-angle line into a curved line in Visio. 


First of all, we have to select a line for which we have to change it into a curve line after selecting it we have to "Right Click" on it then the pop-down menu will be open.

In the pop-down menu, we can see that there is a "Format Shape" option is available. As format name came into mind then it means we are going to format either text, shape, or line then we go.

Now we have to select it then a new menu will be open on the right side of our Microsoft Visio Window.

In this new "Format Shape" menu we can see that there is an option "Rounding Presets"

In Rounding Presets there are many options for making curves.
From this menu we can select our desired curve then our selected straight line will be turned into a curved line.
In our case, we are going to select 
Now we can see that our straight line is changed into a curved line similarly we can change our remaining straight line into a curved line.
Final result.
In this way, we convert our straight line into a curved line. Sometimes we want a curved line instead of a straight line that's why we convert a straight line into curved lines in our drawing or flowcharts.
While working with the complicated drawing we have a line on each other then there appears a line jump. 

Just go to the Design tab > Layout > Connetors.

Click on Connector then we will a new dialogue box will seem.

Four option will appear.
  1. Right-Angle
  2. Straight Lines
  3. Curves Lines
  4. Show Line Jumps
If we want to remove line jump in our flowchart then uncheck it then no line jump will appear in our flowchart in Visio.

In this way, we can turn our straight line into curved line and also remove line jumps in our Visio flowchart.
