Re: Adding more Connector Lines

For the coloring:

Right-click the page and choose "Color Schemes...". The Org-chart stuff has
built-in theme-like coloring, so you can change the look of the whole page
according to some pre-built color-sets. If that doesn't work, you can edi
the "Connector" style under Format > Define Styles... and specifically
change just the connector line color. All org-chart connectors in the
document use the Connector style, so you only have to change it here.


For the connectors:

I'm not sure what's wrong. Are you trying to assign more than one parent to
a child? If so, the org-chart solution doesn't support that, but I don't
think that's what I read in your problem. Sorry I can't reproduce your
error.

Hello, I am working in Org Charts and I can't seem to get more than three
connector lines to connect to a 2D box at the same point. I am trying to
do
point to point connections from three subordinate boxes to one main box's
single connector point. After I've done this, I want to connect the main
box
to yet another dominant box over it, as soon as I connect those two boxes,
I
lose one of the connector lines from the subordinate to the first main
box.
It seems that the boxes have a limited number of connector lines to it? I
did drag the subordinate box over the main box to connect them
automatically.
Anyone can help? I have read up in MS Help in Visio about connectors and
where they begin, end, p2p and Shape-to-Shape connections, but nowhere
does
it say anything about how many connectors a 2D box can take because it
seems
limited right now. Help anyone?

Also, how can one change the default colour or reset the default colour of
a
connector line? It starts of as light blue and I want all of them black
and
I cannot seem to find out where to designate the default. Help anyone?
