Hi there how do I merge arrows in a flowchart? Like the attached image (arrows coming out of 2.2c process task).

Hi Georgie thanks for posting in the community! I'm happy to help. To achieve the look you're hoping for I recommend that you either:

 

1. Extend the arrow coming from "2.2c Turn on Stove" to "Water Boiling?" so that it completely overlaps with the other

or 2. remove the arrow endpoint from that line so that it's just the lines that are overlapping:
