Hi,
this was an experiment.
I do not like the behaviour and thus will not use it.
But maybe it is useful for someone else.

Edit: Attached new version.
I understand this is still the preferred format for electronics diagrams in North America.
Yes, it's the same in Europe / Germany.
We have the connection points but not those little bridges.
But that is not the problem.
I do not like the drag & drop behaviour:
When I move an component that is connected to the end of a line, then also the connection point (and thus also the other line segment) moves.
Now I changed the connection behaviour so that lines do not connect to other lines.
The connection points are turned on and off manually be context menu.
This is more work but less annoying.
The problem is that the drawing now is nothing more than a picture.
But I would also like to generate a netlist...
Hi,
I attached a drawing with all combinations I tested.
Personally I prefer the behaviour of a simple straight line without the "connect to other lines" feature.
Sadly this is a global document setting.
But in fact there is no really good line behaviour for electric diagrams possible in Visio (as far as I know).
