Click Connection on the Symbols bar, or click the source object and then the Connection button on the mini toolbar.
You can determine the course of a connection by clicking at the relevant positions in the diagram area while drawing the connection to the target item.
In the model, click the positions via which you want the connection to run. Each click adds an angle. This way, it is possible to lead the connection path around an item.
If you want to allow only right-angled connections, enable the New connections only right-angled check box. If you want to allow both right-angled and straight connections, disable the New connections only right-angled check box. Once you have enabled or disabled the check box, you can create new connections with the specified connection alignment.
Enable the Use as default check box if you want your setting to apply to all new models. In this case, it is transferred to the options dialog (ARIS > Options, entry Model > For new models > Connections).
Click OK.
The connections will be aligned in the manner specified when they are being created.
