Hi @Polleke 

I do this all the time. One approach is to use the pen tool, which gives you “full squiggliness” freedom and your line will not snap/lock to any objects.

Another approach is just to select the “Line Connection” tool - or just press the keyboard shortcut L. Note there is an important trick when doing this, namely, if you want your line to cross over into another shape without snapping/locking onto that shape, just keep the COMMAND button (on a Mac, I assume it is probably CONTROL on a PC) held down while you are dragging one of the endpoints.

Good luck! Ken
