Hi Patrik,
This is currently not supported. For edges, we support Line Width, Line Style (Plain, Dashed, Dotted...), Line Color and it is also possible to hide the decoration at the end(s) of the line (But not possible to choose a different decoration).
Edge customization is must more complicated than it is for nodes, because we need to manage the anchors, bendpoints and routing algorithms, which might need to be changed when using an image rather than a line
Regards,
Camille

Hi,
Replacing with a shape works only for nodes. In fact, Shape replacement relies on the display of the shape in a given compartment with everything else hidden, and the edges do not have yet such compartments.
In a conceptual point of view, it is kind of hard to map the edge concept (from one source to one target for the simplest ones) to the concept of SVGs, that do not really have such source and target elements. Perhaps adding some information in the SVG, as the anchor points could be possible. The bendpoints (edge angles) would also be hard to manage in svg figures.
HTH,

. I know this is a really odd question but my though was to superimpose an svg on top of the edge and hide the actual edge, similar to what you can do in a shape. But as Remi writes you need a compartment 'in/on' the edge.
