Dear brothers and sisters on ARIS,

I have been struggling to find if there is a setting tthat makes connections, by default, go around objects instead of running over them.

Hello David,

in Architect Menu ARIS > Options > Model > Layout
you can deactivate the option "Allow connection alignment across objects" for automatic layout generation (placement of objects). Then you have to trigger the layout for the whole model or a marked part of it.

But this is not a default setting for creating new connections or the "optimize connection alignment" function.

On drawing a new connection you can determine the points where it should bend with shift key + mouse click.

Regards, Martin

Thanks Martin,

I had already tried to deactivate the option "Allow connection alignment across objects" and tigger the layout, but for some reason it keeps allowing connections across objects:

Can't figure out what the option "Allow connection alignment across objects" really does.

Hello David,

well, the layout algorithm is not AI. I am on Aris 10 SR20 and the ruleset for epc graphs does make a difference if connections across objects is not allowed. I do not have experience with the bpmn graph ruleset.

I assume you need to nudge the layouter into the right direction with different docking points like on the upper edge of your tasks.

Or you raise an issue with support.

Regards, Martin
