How to set default connector style

[thed0ctor]

is there a way to set the default connector style? I'd like it to be square orthogonal by default instead of having to always change it.

IIRC, still not. Has been requested quite some times. Try to search the Suggestions forum.

Currently you can only set the default to Direct, Auto-routing or Custom, not Bezier, or any of the tree styles or orthogonal styles. But if you create a stereotype in a profile, you can define any line style to that stereotype. Search the help for _lineStyle for guidance.

and this hasn't changed in EA 12

Could you direct me to the article? I tried searching _lineStyle but couldn't find anything

Open the Help/Help Contents from EA and then Search for _lineStyle. One hit...

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

You should set that as your signature
