Great tips. I'm hoping one of these tips is what was used in the newsletter template that I downloaded from Microsoft that had edit points on a photo.

[mattmichaeli]

How do you set a precise point in a shape? It's always free form for some reason so it never goes exactly where I need it.

When trying to add a connector using line/arrow shapes, in my case, the blue guides/dots won't show when you hover over the shape. Why? How to fix?
