Hey All,
Trying to get links that dissapear behind a BG image...
Is there a way to get an entirely rectangular link?


Want to be able to do this...

=====BGIMAGE====>
As opposed to
====>BGIMAGE====>

Any ideas?

Well, you can get rid of the bwlabels with 'bwlabel none'...

In 0.96 (currently early testing) you can set z-order, so you can have a node with some image as it's icon, and place *that* in front of a link... in fact, nodes are drawn after links anyway, so you can do that in 0.95 or earlier, too:

====[NODE-IMAGE]===>

With 0.96 you can adjust the order per-node/link, so you can use nodes as group-boxes behind links, and other things like that, or to have a node with a diagram of a switch as it's icon, and have the links land on the correct ports, instead of just disappearing behind the icon.

As for the no-arrowhead thing, I would have though arrowstyle 1 0 would do it...

May redo the background document to make it cleaner as well.

Can't wait for .96 (angled corners!)

(The idea here was to use someone elses documentation of a network to turn up a weathermap using the same documentation...thus creating a single unified version of the appearance of that network)

Thanks Howie!
