How to draw the line without a connector in Visio?

In this article, we learn how we can draw a line in Visio without a connector. As we know that we can draw lines with the help of a connector but we will not prefer the connector. 
In this article, we will draw the line with the help of the line tool in Visio. 
In the following screenshot, we can see that there is a flowchart in which shapes are connected with the help of a straight line.

Also, if we attach an arrowhead on our line either on the right side or left side then it will represent in which direction the flowchart is moving forward.
Here is an example of which arrowhead is inserted in the Visio drawing.

Let's move to the main topic.
First of all, we have to insert shapes into our Visio drawing so that we can insert lines between these shapes into our Visio drawing. We can insert shapes from the Shapes pane. Just open the basic shapes in the shapes pane then simply drag and drop from the shapes pane into the artboard of the Visio.


After inserting the shapes we can see that our shapes are inserted into the Visio drawing. After it, we have to insert the line between these shapes.
Now, we will learn how we can insert the line between these shapes in our Visio drawing.
Go to the Home tab then Tools Group in this group we can see a rectangle.

After that we have to click on the rectangle then our basic shapes in the tool group will be open.
As we can see a few shapes in this group.
  1. Rectangle
  2. Ellipse
  3. Line
  4. Freeform 
  5. Arc
  6. Pencil

As we will select the line tool then our cursor will turn into a line and a plus sign.
When we will move our cursor into the shapes then our shapes will show connection points of the lines.
The green box shows that our cursor is on the first shape when we will click on the first then will go up to the second shape then we will see what happens.

When both shapes will be lined with each other with the help of the line tool.

As we can see that our both shapes are linked with the help of the line tool. As we can notice it the line is selected for now.
Similarly, we will continue the same process and will go up to all shapes.
Then we can see that our shapes are connected with the help of the line tools.


In this way, we can connect shapes with the help of the line tool.
