Connect point angles

Drop point angles

Drop point ToolTip

Allows you to define the ToolTip that appears on the drop point of the symbol when you place it. You can use a drop point when you are placing a symbol on another symbol. The ToolTip is useful for quickly displaying important information that you want a user to know about the symbol.

For example, you could define a ToolTip for a network card symbol that displays the words Network Card. If you attempt to drop the network card symbol near a hub symbol, the ToolTip appears as a visual reminder of the type of symbol that you are placing. In drawing network diagrams, you do not want to connect a network card symbol to a hub symbol.

Drag point

Assigns the drag point attribute to the SmartPoint.

Drag point order

Allows you to define the order that the drag points attach to the pointer when you drag the symbol. You can cycle through the drag points when dragging the symbol by pressing the Up or Down arrow keys on the keyboard.
