RobinL 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2014 While experimenting today, I found what I believe to be is an undocumented feature. There are 6 types of elastic lines that you can select to join between 2 conection ports on boxes (and also to intermediate connection ports). When the object at the end point of a line is moved then the joining segment adjusts accordingly. There are 2 forms of line orthogonal - segments always horizontal or vertical oblique - segments not constrained There are 3 annotations for the end points of the lines nothing - just the line is shown arrowhead at one end arrowhead at both ends This gives the 6 types. I discovered today that for the oblique line types at each intermediate location where you click the mouse becomes a way-point. Thus you can easily contruct an elastic multi-segmented path bewtween 2 locations on a chart (e.g. linking married cosins on a chart). The intermediate points : - are saved correctly in a .VC2 file and are redrawn as expected on re-opening - may be edited by selecting the line and then "Edit Vertices" icon on the tool bar. That is, this line acts like other multi-segmented lines or shapes for editing. This will certainly make manual annotation of charts much easier to perform. The orthogonal line types are do survive the save-then re-open test but in the prosess loosing some of their properties in that saving or redrawing process.
