Changing the style or properties of a connector in your ClickCharts project is easy. Select the connector by clicking on it while in Select mode.

To change the connector type, right-click, then select a new connector type. The Properties are also found in the right-click menu.

On the Line tab, you can select No Line, Solid, or Gradient. To change the color of the solid line, click on the color box and select a new color. Adjust the line opacity using the slider.

You can add either a linear or radial gradient. Adjust the direction of the gradient by clicking and dragging the start and endpoints in the Direction window.

A stop point is used to define the colors in your gradient. Click on an arrow to select it. The selected stop is highlighted yellow. You can change the color of the stop point by clicking on the color box and selecting a new color. Add a stop point by clicking on the stop bar. Click and drag to adjust the location of the stop point. Select a stop point, then, click the delete button to remove it. Use the opacity slider at the bottom of the screen to adjust the Opacity of the selected stop point.

At the bottom of the dialog are additional options. These apply to both solid lines and gradient lines. Change the line width, the cap type, join type, or dash type here.

On the Arrow tab, you can change the arrow style and size.

When you are finished, use the ‘X’ in the corner to close the dialog.

To edit multiple connectors simultaneously, hold down the CTRL key to select each connector that you would like to edit, then open the Properties dialog and make your changes.
