Labels and Polyline Connection [message #164705]

Hello

I'm trying to create connections between labels so that the outcome would
look like this:

It seems it is not possible to add a new connection to a label? What
gmfgraph Figure Descriptor would help me here to get the same effect but
with the option to add Connections?
I have tried nesting the label inside a Rectangle but that didn't work.

I had an error in gmfmap.
It is possible to create Connections the way I needed if I put the Label
inside a Rectangle. If the Label is directly in a Figure Descriptor
(without the extra Rectangle), it is set to be an External label and that
causes layout problems. So the solution with an extra rectangle is better.
