Arrow Routing when reflexive

Hi,

I have an arrow that connects from a box to the same box, hence reflexive.

I want the arrow to remain orthogonal.

When I move the box somewhere else, I call the route method of arrow to route it. But, the route method seems to check if the arrow is reflexive and tries to route only if it is not.

So, my arrow ends up retaining few of its control points. Hence it gets a stretched look.

Is that check really required? Or is there some other way I can route a reflexive arrow?

Thanks,
Praveen

Hi,

After you detect that a reflexive link has been created, try setting its SegmentCount to 3 and Style to Cascading. This should rearrange the arrow points in the orthogonal style, above the target box.

Our developer will see if that check is required; now no one can remember what reason was there for adding it.
