We already supported press shift key when creating or dragging line to create horizontal and vertical lines. But when drawing one end of line object, press SHIFT key and let mouse go didn’t change line to be perfectly horizontal or vertical, as how it works in Powerpoint, etc. We improved it so it works as well in Origin.

More support press Ctrl+Shift to enter the mode to move the point along the original line.
