Connection Types

Description

Compare the built-in connection shapes in Foblex Flow and see how different edge styles change the readability of the same graph. This is the fastest entry point when you are choosing a default routing style for a node editor or workflow builder.

Example

[example.html] <<< https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Foblex/f-flow/main/libs/f-examples/connections/connection-types/example.html [example.ts] <<< https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Foblex/f-flow/main/libs/f-examples/connections/connection-types/example.ts [example.scss] <<< https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Foblex/f-flow/main/libs/f-examples/connections/connection-types/example.scss

Built-in connection types

  • Straight for direct links with minimal routing logic.
  • Segment for orthogonal paths, with fOffset and fRadius to shape corners and spacing.
  • Bezier for smoother curved edges, also configurable with fOffset and fRadius.
  • Adaptive Curve for a route that adjusts automatically to direction and distance.

Use the fType attribute on <f-connection> to switch between them.

Extend it

If the built-in types are not enough, move to the Custom Connection Type example and build your own reusable edge behavior.
