Setting to turn off automatic line and shape creation suggestion

Thank you for the quick response.  I don’t see a Page Settings menu option in my file?  I see Document Settings and a Line Connections toggle but that removes too much functionality.  I still want the dots to show to connect the elements, I just don’t want it to do that thing where it tries to predict the next Shape?

Automatic line and shape prediction has complicated the ability to create custom flow charts with multiple shape types.  Turning it on and off would be a benefit

The recent “feature” of automatically predicting and connecting line activity causes me to spend a lot time erasing unwanted artifacts. I often have to move shapes out of way in order to place lines where I want them.

Please allow this auto prediction to be disabled. It really shouldn’t be a requirement.

A contributor above suggested disabling line connections, which is not what this is about.
