arrows and text

[EEDGAG]

Is it possible for the text describing the arrows and lines not to be
horizontal? That it has the same shape than the arrow, as if writted on the
line? Because my diagram is quite impossible to read without that.

Thanks for any help you can give

Under the Text tool (The letter A on the toolbar) is the Text Block Tool
(The letter A encircld by an arrow). You can use this to change the
orientation of text.

New data, I do have the Text Bolck Tool, but it disapears when I open my
file. Any explanation?

The Text Block tools is behind the Text tool so you need to right click the
Text tool to get access to the Text Block tool. This shouls stay in place
for the session, but will revert back to the Text tool on top when you
restart Visio.
