Properties

fromHandleArchetype ↔ GraphObject?
Gets or sets a small GraphObject that is copied as a relinking handle for the selected link path at the "from" end of the link. By default this is a Shape that is a small blue diamond. Setting this property does not raise any events.
getter/setter pair
handle ↔ GraphObject?
Returns the GraphObject that is the tool handle being dragged by the user. This will be contained by an Adornment whose category is "RelinkFrom" or "RelinkTo". Its Adornment#adornedPart is the same as the #originalLink.
getter/setter pair
toHandleArchetype ↔ GraphObject?
Gets or sets a small GraphObject that is copied as a relinking handle for the selected link path at the "to" end of the link. By default this is a Shape that is a small blue diamond. Setting this property does not raise any events.
getter/setter pair

Methods

canStart() → bool
This tool can run when the diagram allows relinking, the model is modifiable, and there is a relink handle at the mouse-down point.
copyLinkProperties(Link templink, [Link? reallink]) → void
Make a temporary link look and act like the real Link being relinked. By default this method copies many of the routing-oriented properties from the LinkingBaseTool#originalLink to the LinkingBaseTool#temporaryLink.
doActivate() → void
Start the relinking operation.
doDeactivate() → void
Finishing the linking operation stops the transaction, releases the mouse, and resets the cursor.
doMouseUp() → void
A mouse-up ends the relinking operation; if there is a valid #targetPort nearby, this modifies the old link to connect with the target port.
This method is called upon a mouse up when #reconnectLink is not called.
makeAdornment(GraphObject selelt, bool toend) → Adornment?
(undocumented) Create and return an Adornment that lets the user grab a handle to reconnect one end of the selected link.
Modify an existing Link to connect to a new node and port.
updateAdornments(Part part) → void
Show an Adornment for each end of the Link that the user may reconnect. The Adornment may have a copy of #fromHandleArchetype and/or #toHandleArchetype.
