How do I constrain lines and arrows in PowerPoint 2007?

[DLaird]

In PowerPoint 2003 you could hold down the shift key to constrain lines and
arrows. When I do that in PP 2007 the lines and arrows are not constrained
and get longer than what I'm aiming for. Sorry for the nubee question, but I
can't find any reference to it in the help sections.

This is a bug. There is a fix (but don't work on my computer). So I use the
Alt key instead of Shift

Do you know where I can find the fix? This is a REALLY annoying problem.

BTW, holding down the ALT key works fairly well, thanks.
