Modifying Straight or Orthogonal Connection Line

By default, when a connection is created between objects that are not aligned, the connection is displayed with an orthogonal line. Once it is created, you can switch the appearance of the connection between an orthogonal line and a straight line.

Tip: To change the default connection, select Straight in Me > Preferences > App Preferences > 3D Modeling > Systems Architecture > Functional & Logical Design > 2D Graph F/L. For more information, see Native Apps Preferences Guide: 2D Graph F/L.
