Hi,
Does anyone know please if a connector type exists that displays a ‘bump’ when crossing a boundary? Or of an extension that has been written to make connectors that display in this way?
I’m guessing if not the process of creating a custom one would be pretty complicated right?
Image attached to show what I mean.
Any ideas gratefully received!
Thanks
There is not such feature. Of course you can build it yourself but it’s anything but trivial.
@philippfromme Could be a fun slack-time topic though 
.
I’d like to bring this idea back and argue it’s not as trivial as it might seem, especially when creating process flows for business users.
Many users we design flows for are not experienced with BPMN or anything similar to it, and having straight lines crossing over can lead to confusion. They see an arrow heading out of one task, and through their eyes rather than having another arrow crossing over it, they see the arrow ‘split into three’ and believe that all three routes must then be followed.
From a technical standpoint, or an experienced BPMN user standpoint, it’s obvious there’s a crossing arrow. But we’re not always designing for technical people, and our company policy is to include an arc at the moment to ensure clarity for inexperienced end users.
If it could be added, it would be something I see as genuinely beneficial and help bpmn.io keep up / compete with major process flow diagram applications.
