I am trying to use custom magnets to create some stencils for system diagrams. There doesn't appear to be a way to specify which direction a connector will attach from.
For example - I am putting magnets on 4 ethernet ports arranged in a square, the 2 bottom magnets attach from below, but the top 2 get attachments from the right, which is not the desired location. I want to be able to attach from all 4 directions, or to restrict the attachment. Is there a way to control this? Not being able to do this (which I can do in Open Office) is a serious limitation for the type of diagrams I do on a regular basis.
I want this:
