HOW TO DRAW ARROWS IN GOOGLE DOCS
Drawing lines and arrows in Google Docs means creating an image first, and creating an image in Google Docs means entering a drawing canvas. It starts with us entering the drawing mode, for that we click on the “Insert” on the toolbar, down to the 3rd item “Drawing” and hit “New” on the right. That opens a drawing canvas, which is the basis for creating lines, shapes and drawings in Google Docs, and normally at first you create elements to connect them with arrows. Like shapes, text boxes, or uploading images to draw over them, so on the video I'm getting one from my computer, the rightmost icon on the toolbar to insert an image and then drop it right there to the canvas.

DRAWING AN ARROW
The tools you are working with in the drawing workspace are on top, where we need the button standing for line drawing, but to make it exactly an arrow, there's a little "Down Arrow" symbol you need to click on. And there select the second “Arrow” type line and draw it, put the mouse pointer where you want the arrow to start, press-hold and move it to the end point, then release you have it, the simplest line with the arrow at the end of it. Then you may want to change its position on the canvas, and to do that exit the drawing mode by pressing “Esc” on the keyboard, then press-hold on the line and drag it where you want it to be. If you want to resize it and change the position start and end point pull from either end of the line, where you see the circles, and you’ll be able to rearrange the position of the line end and start points.

CUSTOMIZING ARROW
And here we customize the looks of our arrow. First of all, we can add an arrowhead to the start point, for that press on the last but one icon on the toolbar, the one that points to the left, and select which one you like more in the dropdown. And in the same way you can change the looks on the end point, it’s that button with the arrow pointing to the right, and then select which one you like as well. Then we can customize the looks of exactly a line, on a toolbar there are tools for that, and the first in the line color, where you pick either some standard one, or do a custom with the "+" icon, on the video I do a red one. Next on the menu we have line weight, where you basically select how thick you want your line to be, I'm doing it 4 pixels thick, and then it's a line dash if you’d like.

OTHER LINES AND ARROWS
And I think the most awesome feature for lines in google docs is that you can make an arrow out from any type of line, starting from the basic one. Select it in the drop down for lines, the first item, and draw some simple line, and then just add arrowheads to the line end and start points just like you did earlier with button on top and you have it done. Now for the other lines, then in the dropdown we have the “Elbow connector”, the line, which is bent in the middle, and when you draw it, it adapts to where you place the end point. Once again, you can change the position of the start and end points by pulling either ends of the line, and then add the arrowheads to it. The same goes for the next “Curve connector” and the classic “Curve” in the menu.
