Hi Patrick

Thanks for posting in the Lucid Community! You can import a custom chevron shape for your use in Lucidchart by following the steps outlined in this help center article. Additionally check out this community thread with several other workarounds and ideas from our community regarding this shape.

I hope this helps - let us know if you have any additional questions! 

When I search for chevron in Shapes search it says "No search results...". I also don't see a shape library called "Chevron Shape". How do I find this? This lack of a simple chevron shape has long been the main shortcoming in LucidChart for me.

Hi Tim

Thanks for the feedback. Your best bet might be to make a Custom Shape out of a flex polygon. Once you get the shape you need you can right click and save that shape to a Custom Library. You can also import an image and save it as a shape if you want to bring in a chevron from and outside source.
