Connecting objects is very time confusing and in most cases, completely unnecessary. I would say on average using graphical editor programs that connecting objects takes up close to half the time to do the drawing.
So unless I missed this feature in older versions do you folks plan on adding the "auto connect" feature on your newer versions of the software?
Typically other similar graphical editors I have recently used, one just selects a new object then place it very close to an existing object and the connection is AUTOMATICALLY made. Placing the second object a bit further away leaves the objects unconnected. Its as simple as that.
Another option I have seen is to simply put in all the objects in ones desired position then at the end, select auto-connect and the lines are ALL automatically connected.
Such programs then give the option after the fact to move or delete any undesired auto-connections that have been previously made. Again, its as simple as that.
