Arrows: Auto Position Head And Tail Unchecked, But Still Wants To Stick To Text?

[zowie123]

Fellow worker bees!

 

I want arrows to stay where I put them because auto position doesn't seem to save me any time.  So I un-checked the auto position head and tail toggle, but they seem to act the same.  

 

Is there any way to make arrows not stick to text--ever, not even a little bit?  

 

Thank you, 

Barry

Seems like no one wants to respond to this thread. In any case, I never have paid much attention to such things and just do what I must to get work done. I realize this is not much help relative to your query but I consider that it is at least an acknowledgement. I put things where and as I  need them-that is what I do and I am satisfied, right or wrong.

Sometimes arrows still move around for me also, I have just tried to live with it, for now. I think what's going on is sometimes my arrow will attach to something other then what I wanted it to attach to. Like moving a ceiling joists or another hidden object. I also turned off the auto head and tail but it still moves.Don't know why but it has gotten better over the years.

I'm with Perry on this.  I have given up with the arrows.  I just don't get it.  Not a super big problem,  but if I am not careful,  arrows move....  I don't like it.

 

Quite frankly,  I am not sure if I ever want the arrows to move,  because when they do,  the beginning of a 2 legged arrow does not stay parallel to bottom of page and it's all mucked up anyway.

 

Someone needs to make these arrows easier to work with for us nit wits.

Thanks! I thought it was just me.
