Title: Default LineStyle - Orthogonal Square?
Post by: RIL on January 26, 2024, 08:13:51 pm

Hi all,
Long time, no see.

Q: Is it possible to set the default association Line Style in the Settings, somewhere?

Trying out the new EA 16.1 (I've been on EA12 for years now...) I find that I always use Line Style "Orthogonal Square" for Associations (in 100% of the cases). But no Keyboard shortcut seems to exist for that option and it is tiresome to keep picking that option with the mouse for all associations.

Not to steal Geert's thunder, but maybe his article might help you?

Thanks for the hint!

I tried to search, and found, an old script by Bellekens on my drive from days past :).

But now I have to find out how I run a script in the new EA version. The new Ribbon UI is a mystery mess...  :-[

Hm. Can't find any "Script Library" in that tab  :(

Aha, it requires Corporate version to see the Script Library menu. I restarted the 16.1 trial in Corporate mode, and there it was.
