hi friends

i am new to visio .

i was watching a visio training video from youtube & i saw that the guy drew two straight lines & then when hover the mouse on these lines, at the middle of each line, a handle (connection point) ( if i don't mistake) was appeared & then the guy simply click on the handle (point) & pull it out & so created a neat curve (arc).

but in visio 2013, when i draw two lines, i don't see any of those point on my lines so that i pull them out ( drag them) to create a neat curve.

has this ability removed in Visio 2013?

to clarify, i paste the screenshots from that video training:

look at the point which i have selected them with a red line around it. where are these in visio 2013 ?

i even selected all checkmarks in view menu , visual Aids, but again they don't appear on simple lines

visio converting straight line to curve
