Orthogonal line juts out when added to corner
 

This is rather difficult to describe with words, but basically, when I try to connect one rectangle from a lower left corner magnet to the side of another rectangle below it, it doesn't give me a left angle. Instead, I end up with this hot mess: [URL="http://cl.ly/HXEF"]http://cl.ly/HXEF[/URL]

I've tried just using a straight line and setting points manually but that means I have to be super-precise to keep the lines straight because, for me at least, holding the shift key doesn't do anything.

Any help would be appreciated! :)

Sorry for the trouble this is causing! Would it be possible to send a copy of the document to our [EMAIL="omnigraffle@omnigroup.com"]support ninjas[/EMAIL]? (The "Send Feedback" item under the Help menu will even convert all text in the document to gibberish, if it contains sensitive information.)

I was able to generate lines similar to what you're describing - the Shift key [I]should[/I] be restricting straight lines to multiples of 45 degrees. I'm guessing that just means that the document that I whipped together isn't encountering the same thing you're seeing for some reason. If we have a copy of your document to work with, we should be able to get to the bottom of this fairly quickly. Thanks for the help!
