The Arrow object is an arrow you can put anywhere in your process flow. The Arrow object is for display only, meaning that it doesn't have any other function or purpose other than visual display.
You can redirect the Arrow object by using the two red control points, and you can resize it by clicking the endpoints.
Arrows do not allow incoming or outgoing connectors. They are for visual use only.
The following image shows properties for the Arrow objects:
Used to change the name of the object. See Name for more information about this property.
You can use the Lock To box to attach the Arrow object to an
activity in your process flow. When the Arrow is locked to an object, it will move when that
activity is moved. Use the Sampler button
to select the activity the Arrow object
should be locked with.
The Rotation property actually has no effect on Arrow objects since the rotation is set by the control points. It is only here as a standard property that automatically comes with most display objects.
Use the Type menu to select different arrow styles. In this version of FlexSim, the two available styles are straight and Bezier. Future FlexSim versions might have more styles.
You can use the Single or Double options to switch to from a solid black line or a double line (which looks like it has a white stripe running through it).
Use the Width box to set the width of the line.
Use the Style menu to select the line style (such as a solid, dashed, or dotted line).
Use the Start Cap menu to select the visual style of the start of the line. You can give the start of the line a shape such as a square, a circle, or another arrowhead.
If you check the Color checkbox, it will enable a few properties that can control the arrow's color:
