I was searching for a circular arrow in the shapes but couldn’t find it anywhere. Any ideas where it can be? Or do I need to create it somehow from a few shapes by myself?

 

Thanks in advance for answer.

Hi ​@Polina R 

There isn’t a native circular arrow shape in the standard Lucidchart libraries, so the usual approach is to build one it is so simple and then save it to a custom shape library for reuse.

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards

Hi ​@Polina R thank you for posting in the Community, and thank you ​@Humas1985 for chiming in!

Besides custom shapes mentioned by ​@Humas1985, another workaround is our Line options functionality that includes customizable arched lines, as such:

Such line can then be added to your library as a custom shape or set as default style by right-clicking on the line.

More information on this can be found in our Help Center article on Lines in Lucidchart.
