You can toggle between drawing your connection lines as solid or dashed. Having different style connection lines can help organize a larger node network.
Select a connection line, right-click for the menu, and choose Tools Toggle Connection Draw Style.
To change a line from dashed back to solid display, right-click and choose Tools Toggle Connection Draw Style once again.
You can also change a connection line to be rectilinear instead of curving. Hold down Ctrl+Shift and drag an existing connection line to change it.
To revert a rectilinear line style to the curved default, select the line, right-click for the menu and choose Tools Reset Connection.
