Well, since my last beginner question was answered, I am encouraged
to try again.  In my Unidraw editor, the user can connect items
together.  The connections should be displayed as lines or something,
and when one of the items is moved, the connections should be updated.
I have been trying to use the Connector and ConnectTool, but either
I am using them wrongly or they don't mean what I think they mean.
When I use the ConnectTool, click on a Pin in one item, and drag
to the Pin in another item, it just seems to remove the first Pin
from the screen.

Does anyone feel up to a simple explanation of Connectors, and the
best way to do what I want?  

Many thanks in advance.
Sanjay Mehta.
