Straight Lines
Hello,
I find it extremely hard to create straight lines/arrows is there an easier way to do this?
i.e. holding shift like other programs does not work.
Thanks!

@Rafael - One trick that often works for me is to hold down the ALT key while stretching the line I am drawing. Most of the time it works. In the few cases where a person on a galloping horse is likely to see it, I will verify that it's straight by dropping in a rectangle object as more or less a sanity check.
All that to say yes, the absence of a verified "shift/click/CTRL/ALT" key toggle is a frustration. Tools, like their designers, are not infinite and do have limitations. This appears to be one of them within SL.
