Fiddly Lines
« on: November 14, 2013, 01:11:38 pm »
Hi there, I'm an EA newbie. If someone has posted this question before my apologies but could you please respond with a link to the thread.

I find the line drawing in Sparx very fiddly is there a snap to grid function of some sort?

Best regards

It's described in the Help, and listed as Snap To Grid in the index...

Another consideration if you're finding connectors fiddly: you can set the line style to Orthogonal and it will keep all verticals vertical and all horizontals horizontal.

It would be nice if we could set that as the default style.
