Display of bridges when lines intersect

Beginning in release 8.3.1, if the line_style property is set to rectilinear_arrows or rounded_rectilinear_arrows, Rhapsody® displays bridges when lines intersect in a diagram.

You can turn off this feature by setting the value of the property RectilinearBridgeDrawing to False.

If you want to toggle bridges for a specific diagram, you can use the button that is provided in the Layout toolbar.

When the feature is turned on, you can use the property RectilinearBridgeShape to customize the appearance of the bridges.
