Import, then Diagram->Layout, routes messed up

Ah - lol - yes. That's German for what. Too late...

But that would bring up the question why auto-layout changes connector style, wouldn't it?

As soon as the importer runs the layout function, the line styles are changed to custom by the layout.

Why don't the line styles conform to the Default style set by the user?

The answer to both of your questions has already been answered by my previous post.

The problem isn't with the code import. It's with the layout method that is being used. The positions it is placing elements in means that it needs to introduce waypoints to prevent the connectors drawing over the elements.

We haven't introduced an option for this layout to prevent it changing the line styles. You could always set the option to disable automatic layout during reverse engineering. You would then have the option to apply a different layout manually after completion.

Oh yes. Short time memory is getting worse when you're aged. Thanks.

I wrote an EA-Matic script to configure my own default line styles per connector type and update all the connectors in a diagram to said default styles: Configure your own default line styles in Enterprise Architect with EA-Matic
