Autoconnect stopped working
When trying to connect a Generalization arrow between two classes in a Visio
2007 UML Static Structure class diagram, the arrow refuses to autoconnect (or glue) to the class. It was working, and then just stopped! I haven't changed any properties and I'm really hoping my VSD file is not somehow corrupt. I have checked the setting in Tools|Options|General|Enable Autoconnect is ticked. If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it as I'm pulling what little hair I have left out. Many thanks in advance |

Hello,
Is the AutoConnect button on the Standard toolbar depressed (ie does it have an orange background)?

Hi John, thanks for your answer...
It wasn't, but I did find the solution to the problem. Under the Tools menu there's a Snap & Glue section. In the dialog panel that opens the Snap was ticked but the Glue was unticked. God knows how it became unticked, 'cos I sure didn't untick it! Something must have corrupted the document because the problem happened whilst editing the document.
