Diagram.allowSplitLinks Property

Gets or sets a value indicating whether link segments can be added and removed interactively.

Namespace: MindFusion.Diagramming
File: Diagram.js

 Syntax

JavaScript

get allowSplitLinks() {}
set allowSplitLinks(value) {}

 Property Value

Boolean

true if interactive adding/removing of link segments is allowed, or false otherwise.

 Remarks

You can insert new link segments interactively by clicking and dragging a point of a selected link's segment. For polyline-style links this creates one additional segment by splitting the existing one into two parts. For cascading links, there are two segments inserted, keeping intact the alternating pattern of horizontal and vertical segments, each orthogonal to its neighbors.

Segments can be merged by moving their joining point until the angle between reaches certain threshold value. In case of cascading and Bezier links, segments can be merged by placing adjacent control points close to each other, as set in mergeThreshold.

This property also lets users change the orientation of cascading links' end segments, by dragging second or next-to-last control point diagonally.
