Trying to do something basic Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
Hi,

I come to OmniGraffle as a Visio user and I'm just trying to do something very basic and can't figure out how.

I'm trying to create a set of magnetized rectangles and then connect them using orthogonal lines, exactly as you would do in Visio.

The important thing is that all my boxes should have magnet points at each of the four center parts of their perimeter and each orthogonal line should connect in the center.

The other important thing is that each orthogonal line should only switch directions a minimal number of times (ie - most lines should be either 1 straight line, or two straight lines... 2 at the most).

How can I do this easily? In Visio, I just put in boxes and start putting in connections and it all happens by itself...
