});</pre></blockquote><p>Here is an alternative solution that just sets a specific user object for new edges by overriding <ahref="#mxConnectionHandler.insertEdge"class=LFunctionid=link99onMouseOver="ShowTip(event, 'tt73', 'link99')"onMouseOut="HideTip('tt73')">insertEdge</a>.</p><blockquote><preclass="prettyprint">mxConnectionHandlerInsertEdge = mxConnectionHandler.prototype.insertEdge;
};</pre></blockquote><h4class=CHeading>Using images to trigger connections</h4><p>This handler uses mxTerminalMarker to find the source and target cell for the new connection and creates a new edge using <ahref="#mxConnectionHandler.connect"class=LFunctionid=link100onMouseOver="ShowTip(event, 'tt1', 'link100')"onMouseOut="HideTip('tt1')">connect</a>. The new edge is created using <ahref="#mxConnectionHandler.createEdge"class=LFunctionid=link101onMouseOver="ShowTip(event, 'tt75', 'link101')"onMouseOut="HideTip('tt75')">createEdge</a> which in turn uses <ahref="#mxConnectionHandler.factoryMethod"class=LVariableid=link102onMouseOver="ShowTip(event, 'tt6', 'link102')"onMouseOut="HideTip('tt6')">factoryMethod</a> or creates a new default edge.</p><p>The handler uses a “highlight-paradigm” for indicating if a cell is being used as a source or target terminal, as seen in MS Visio and other products. In order to allow both, moving and connecting cells at the same time, <ahref="../util/mxConstants-js.html#mxConstants.DEFAULT_HOTSPOT"class=LVariableid=link103onMouseOver="ShowTip(event, 'tt78', 'link103')"onMouseOut="HideTip('tt78')">mxConstants.DEFAULT_HOTSPOT</a> is used in the handler to determine the hotspot of a cell, that is, the region of the cell which is used to trigger a new connection. The constant is a value between 0 and 1 that specifies the amount of the width and height around the center to be used for the hotspot of a cell and its default value is 0.5. In addition, <ahref="../util/mxConstants-js.html#mxConstants.MIN_HOTSPOT_SIZE"class=LVariableid=link104onMouseOver="ShowTip(event, 'tt79', 'link104')"onMouseOut="HideTip('tt79')">mxConstants.MIN_HOTSPOT_SIZE</a> defines the minimum number of pixels for the width and height of the hotspot.</p><p>This solution, while standards compliant, may be somewhat confusing because there is no visual indicator for the hotspot and the highlight is seen to switch on and off while the mouse is being moved in and out. Furthermore, this paradigm does not allow to create different connections depending on the highlighted hotspot as there is only one hotspot per cell and it normally does not allow cells to be moved and connected at the same time as there is no clear indication of the connectable area of the cell.</p><p>To come across these issues, the handle has an additional <ahref="#mxConnectionHandler.createIcons"class=LFunctionid=link105onMouseOver="ShowTip(event, 'tt50', 'link105')"onMouseOut="HideTip('tt50')">createIcons</a> hook with a default implementation that allows to create one icon to be used to trigger new connections. If this icon is specified, then new connections can only be created if the image is clicked while the cell is being highlighted. The <ahref="#mxConnectionHandler.createIcons"class=LFunctionid=link106onMouseOver="ShowTip(event, 'tt50', 'link106')"onMouseOut="HideTip('tt50')">createIcons</a> hook may be overridden to create more than one <ahref="../shape/mxImageShape-js.html#mxImageShape"class=LClassid=link107onMouseOver="ShowTip(event, 'tt51', 'link107')"onMouseOut="HideTip('tt51')">mxImageShape</a> for creating new connections, but the default implementation supports one image and is used as follows:</p><p>In order to display the “connect image” whenever the mouse is over the cell, an DEFAULT_HOTSPOT of 1 should be used:</p><blockquote><preclass="prettyprint">mxConstants.DEFAULT_HOTSPOT = 1;</pre></blockquote><p>In order to avoid confusion with the highlighting, the highlight color should not be used with a connect image:</p><blockquote><preclass="prettyprint">mxConstants.HIGHLIGHT_COLOR = null;</pre></blockquote><p>To install the image, the connectImage field of the mxConnectionHandler must be assigned a new <ahref="../util/mxImage-js.html#mxImage"class=LClassid=link108onMouseOver="ShowTip(event, 'tt10', 'link108')"onMouseOut="HideTip('tt10')">mxImage</a> instance:</p><blockquote><preclass="prettyprint">mxConnectionHandler.prototype.connectIma
