Hi everyone,
I've gotten Connectors to a point where I think it's generally useful, and
would like some testing before officially releasing it.
I have finally added a simple programmatic interface for querying
connections, which should make it easier to use for your own projects.
Also, I have changed the wiring to work with both drag'n'drop and
point'n'click modes.
The enclosed change set is intended to be loaded into a 3.2gamma image. With
3.2 coming along Real Soon Now, I don't think I need to worry about 3.0
images.
It will attempt to convert existing connectors if you have any in your image.
It should also convert old connectors in projects when you load them. Please
tell me if it doesn't.
It will open up a couple of sample flaps with connectors and shapes. However,
the UML shapes there are more a demo than anything else. I would hope that
you would come up with your own flaps or ButtonBars with your own favorite
shapes and connectors.
The Connectors should work with any Morph.
There is still a lingering problem with the bounds of the open-arrowhead
flavor (in the flap as DirectionalAssociation) not being set right from time
to time; you will only see this if you try to do a drag selection. If anyone
has a fix for this please let me know.
As always, please don't try this in an image that you don't have backed up.
I'm looking forward to some feedback!
Thanks,
