How do I align my lines and arrows across multiple shapes in Lucid?

Hello Team!

I have two arrowed connectors/lines between three process nodes…

UMg48Ub~.sjK?a=12711&x=1311&y=293&w=618&h=134&store=1&accept=image%2F*&auth=LCA%20530f27f2fd15fdecdf52e3084be0e3993fd8fb03af80d4099b41d2d06a07586e-ts%3D1742829029

I want to align the connector on the right with the one on the left.  I should Think I’d simply select the two lines, right-click, and choose Align > Middle.  That doesn’t seem to work.  How does one align lines?

Thanks!

​@Eric Padron, that’s too bad.  I’ve opened an Idea, Provide Ability to Align Connector Lines/Arrows, to address.  Thanks for your input!

Hey ​@kcrossley happy to take a stab at this one. Would you mind reposting the screen grab? Appears to be a broken link on my end.

Thank you! The align function will update the placement of the shapes, BUT the line connectors start and end at nodes on the shapes and are not influenced by align. The “fix” is to start and end your connectors at the midpoint of the side of the shape. That’s it.
