Hello Start by creating a class that implements the IDiagramConnectionBuilder interface. This has 2 methods you need to implement. The CanCreateConnection method is for providing connection validation logic for limiting how a user can use the connection. If you don't need any logic for your custom connection, then this method should just return true. In the CreateConnection method, create an instance of your custom connection and pass in the fromConnectionPoint and toConnectionPoint parameters. Then use diagram.Connections.Add to add your custom connection to the given diagram. Now to set your custom connection as the default connection, Set the DefaultConnectionBuilder property of the diagram to be an instance of the custom connection builder. - Jason |
