	Hello again, I have yet another question. I would like to change the default pen, brush, headshape, etc. for new links using JavaScript. I've tried a couple variations of the following: Code (Javascript) function onSelect() { var diagram = MindFusion.Diagramming.Diagram.find("diagramView"); diagram.setLinkHeadShapeSize(3); diagram.setLinkHeadShape('Triangle'); diagram.setLinkPen("#555"); diagram.setLinkBrush({ type: 'SolidBrush', color: 'red' }); } None of these properties seem to change anything, so I'm clearly doing something wrong. I also tried using a theme in server-side, which also did nothing. I would prefer to use JavaScript and avoid the server call if possible. Thanks once again.

	Hi, It seems LinkPen and LinkBrush properties are not used anymore by default, and the compiler will give you obsolete warning if you set them from server side. You can still make this work by setting the useStyles flag to false - Code MindFusion.Diagramming.DiagramLink.useStyles = false; diagram.setLinkHeadShapeSize(3); diagram.setLinkHeadShape('Triangle'); diagram.setLinkPen("#555"); diagram.setLinkBrush({ type: 'SolidBrush', color: 'red' }); Alternatively you could set the link's own Stroke and Brush properties from InitializeLink event handler, or set defaults through a theme.
