How to Draw an Arrow in Visio?

In this article, we are going to add an arrow in Visio. For this, you have to insert the line first or you can go with any flowchart in which there are no arrows are involves in that flowchart in Microsoft Visio.


In this article, we are going to share screenshots are taken from Microsoft Visio 2019. Also, you can follow the article if you are using Visio 2016, Visio 2021, also if you are using the Mac version then also you can follow the post.

Let's Get Started
The first step is to open the Microsoft Visio diagram in Which connectors or lines are inserted but there is no arrowhead.

I am going to open an org chart in which there is everything available like shapes text and many more as you can see in the following diagram.


As you can see that there are lines but there is no arrow in Visio. As you can see in the above screenshot.

The first step is to select one line to which to start an arrow.


As you can see that the line is selected. Go to the Line in the shapes Style as we can see the shape styles in the Home tab.


Line


When we expand the Line with the help of the small arrow nearby the Line. Then we will see the following result.


 In the end, we can see all options are available related to the line formation.
  1. Weight
  2. Dashes
  3. Arrows
  4. Line Options
With the help of the Weight, we can increase and decrease the thickness of the line. Also, we can convert a simple line into the Dashes line with the help of the Dashes. Arrows can be inserted and at the end, we can see the Line Options.

I am going to the with Arrow then I will move our cursor to it then more options will be displayed as we can see in the following screenshot.


If we will select the More Arrows then a dialogue box will be open.


As we can see there are two different options if you want to add begin Arrow then we will select the first option if you want to add end arrow head then you will select the second option.
