Hi,
Is it possible to disable reconnection in that way that you can not even drag an anchor. In other way that there is not "plus" showed when the mouse is over an anchor?
Thanks,
Marek

Marek,

you can return false for the method canReconnect in the appropriate
Reconnection Feature.

Thanks Michael for reply.
The problem with canReconnect is that you can still drag the connection. It wouldn't be so bad, but I created a connection point that splits a connection and can be used to make forks. It is planed that connection point you can freely move. But the connection point has only 7 pixels. It is inconvenient to move this point as most of the tries I drag an anchor point that is on my connection point.

Marek,

I'm afraid that is currently not possible. But I think that would be a
valuable extension to the reconnect functionality. I could imagine an
addtional method canStartReconnect that clients can override, that would be
roughtly the same as we have it in the create connection feature
(canStartConnection).

Would you please file an extension bugzilla for this?

Thanks,
Michael
