Connecting edges always picks topmost element

opened 1 year ago by yentl

When connecting an edge from A to B, the topmost element is always picked to connect to. In many cases, this is not what you want, certainly because edges are always drawn on top. AToMPM also doesn't support edges between edges, making this even worse. Ideally, the connection algorithm should look at the topmost node, and not the topmost element. Even better would be to just sum up all possible options, including nodes under the current node.

The issue does not identify a file, test, or entry point, so first locate the connection algorithm used when drawing an edge from A to B. Compare its handling of nodes and edges against the requested topmost-node behavior, then clarify whether completion means selecting the topmost node or summing all possible candidates.
