Package: com.mindfusion.diagramming

 Syntax

Java

public void setStartOrientation (
    Orientation value
)

 Parameters

value

A member of the Orientation enumeration.

 Remarks

For some diagrams, it might be desirable that first and last segments of links always have a specific direction. For example, in database ER diagrams links usually connect to table rows on the left- or right-hand sides of tables; in that case their end segments must be horizontal. setStartOrientation specifies what orientation of links' first segments to be applied by the routing algorithm.
