Connector direction in MDG toolbox

[qwerty]

When defining a connector in a toolbox it is possible to choose the type. But how can I specify the direction? I want to define an undirected association but the connector is always created Source->Target since there is no way to set this default.

(I tried setting the notes to direction="undirected" and direction="Unspecified" but that does not work.)

Help!

It's half possible for stereotyped connectors - the «metaclass» element will have an attribute called "direction" that you can set as required. But unfortunately you won't be able to have a directed and undirected connector of the same kind in the same toolbox.

Thanks, Neil. Not what I desired, but probably a way to achieve some work around.

Here's what I did:
- add a stereotyped connector to the MDG
- catch creation via OnPostNewConnector
- remove the stereotype
-- not by what EA suggests, but:
-- Execute (Update t_connector ..)
-- Execute (Delete From t_xref Where Client = connectorGUID)

Now that does it - almost. When opening the properties the connector type is still shown as what it was in the MDG (from a <<connect>> association I want to create an undirected <<>> connector). Only after reloading the whole project everything shows as it should. I can live with that...
