How to Draw a Line or Arrow in CrewBox

Point at exactly the thing you mean — an arrow on a photo beats a paragraph of description.

Steps

1. Open the annotation editor

In the photo viewer, click Annotate.

2. Choose the Line tool

Select Line from the toolbar.

3. Pick an arrowhead style

Lines come in four styles:

  • None — a plain line
  • Start — arrowhead at the starting point
  • End — arrowhead at the finish (the default)
  • Both — arrowheads on both ends
The line/arrow tool selected in the annotation toolbar.

4. Set color and thickness

Choose a color (default red) and drag the stroke-width slider anywhere from 1 to 50 px — go thick for visibility in a busy photo.

5. Draw it

Drag across the photo from where the arrow should start to where it should point.

6. Adjust, then save

Switch to the Select tool to move, resize, or rotate the line if needed, then click Save & Close.
