Attributes

Unit

If the attribute is not present, the element's formula is a simple constant, for example, <element>5</element>.

Remarks

Rubber-banding allows the connector to be stretched as the shapes are moved. It improves the appearance of the drawing during shape movements.

The XDyn element is relevant only when contained in a Shape element. It is ignored when contained in a DocumentSheet, PageSheet, or StyleSheet element.
