Place flow arrows
When the Place Flow Arrow dialog box is active, you can select near any segment that has flow assigned and that lies in a plane parallel to the current view. Segments without flow assigned are not selectable, nor are segments askew to the view plane.
An arrow is immediately placed at the point along the segment closest to the pick point, remaining highlighted. The tip of the arrow is positioned on the pick point and the arrow is centered on the segment (in the direction of flow). The Flow Arrow is drawn as a two-dimensional symbol, in the plane parallel to the current view.
The arrow may then be dragged along the segment by selecting the shortcut menu with the cursor over the arrow and moving the mouse. If another pick is made with a left click, another arrow is created and becomes available for shortcut menu repositioning.
