Moving bend points on connectors

Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams are easier to read if connectors do not cross other connectors and shapes. You can use bend points to customize connector line routing to minimize crossed connectors in a UML diagram.

To move a bend point on a connector:
  1. In the diagram editor, select a connector.
  2. Place the cursor over the bend point that you want to move until the moving pointer appears.
  3. Drag the bend point to a new location on the connector.
