I cannot locate my change shape icon!!

Where is it? Can’t locate it in the help section or on any of the drop down menus!! The latest UI update is a step backwards!

@tacklam in order to see the Change Shape icon shown in the screenshot/gif above, you must click on a shape on your canvas in order to have it selected. Then the icon should show up. Try it out and let us know if you have any issues!

Hello

I am trying to change the shape on some of our charts for certain type of entities (% ownership charts). The triangle shape doesn’t seem to exist in my list, only the inverted one is listed. I tried to change the shape by right clicking on ‘more actions’ or by clicking the ‘change shape’ icon as above, but the triangle is not an option. 

2 questions:

- How to create a triangle as a shape?

- Can we do a mass change and modify the shapes of all the cells containing a specific word? (e.g change the shape from a square to a triangle every time “L.P”. is written)

Thank you!

Hi @Melissa K, thank you for continuing this thread! The change shape feature will only work for ‘Flowchart’ or ‘Geometric’ shapes and are limited to shapes in the same library. 

It sounds like your diagram may have been created using Flowchart shapes and you are seeing the ‘Merge shape’ (inverted triangle) when trying to change shape. 

If that is not the case, would you mind sharing a screenshot of what you see when trying to change the shape? This will help us take a closer look!
