Behaviour of lines in PPT 2007/2010

Behaviour of lines in PPT 2007/2010

Some of you may have noticed that line drawing is not what it used to be. In PowerPoint 2007/2010 all lines are behaving like connectors. The lines you draw will snap to the red connect handles on shapes. So when you draw a line and approach an object to the middle of the object it will snap to it. 
Turning off "Snap objects to grid" or "Snap objects to other objects" will not help.

The only way I know to avoid the connectors to appear is to use the Alt key to draw your line, only then the connectors will not show.

If you use the Freeform tool to draw the lines, they will not act as a connector. Remember that you should click once to choose the beginning point of your line, move the mouse and double click to end the line.
