We are trying to provide the following capability in our modified Idraw
application:

Connected Line:

A connected line permits two graphics to be connected with a line (or
multiline) such that
if either graphical object is moved, the connecting line moves with the
graphic. The line
is directed toward the center of each graphic it connects, but its
visible portion ends
at the boundary of each graphic (a connected line with arrowheads has
the arrowheads ending
at the edge of each graphic).

Has anyone implemented this feature?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for any help.
