Fair enough, I shall wait. If I were in the position to lend some code, I
certainly would!
>From a futures perspective, I would vote against smart-routing of lines as
implemented in Visio. It has been my experience that the smart router is
more of a bother than a help; I'd much rather place the lines myself and
not come back to find that the tool as rearranged them for me. This is
particularly annoying when one makes a slight move to one object and the
router then disturbs a number of unrelated connections. If you do build
such a router, perhaps it could be an option that could be enabled or
disabled by the user.
Once again, a fine tool!
