New Connector tool context
Saturday, August 20th, 2005I have commited the connector context to CVS. At the moment it can be used to create basic straight-line connectors and interact with and modify existing connectors, i.e., reroute, detach, or attach to new shapes. At the moment connectors can just be attached to the center of shapes (though user placeable connection points are something I will work on later). This interface works works with loading and saving files, undo and redo, etc.
Click and drag anywhere to create a connector. If you start or finish over a highlighted connection point, then the connector will be attached to that shape. Dragging the endpoint of any existing connector will alter its endpoint, and attach to a shape if dropped on a connection point.
