Connections and Lines

Connections can be made to parameter values and blocks. Connections are shown as horizontal or vertical lines. The editor has
an auto router built in. You do not have to take care about the actual positioning of the connections. To connect an output
with an input follow these steps:
1. Move the mouse over the output where you wish to start until the cursor changes from the pointer to a cross.
2. Then left click and move the mouse (a thin green line is attached) to an input port. If you are over the input port the thin
green wire changes into a thicker green wire. Then left click again to connect the two pins.
The following rules apply:
• Only inputs can be connected with outputs. Outputs with outputs or inputs with inputs cannot be connected.
• It is possible to connect a boolean pin with a word pin. An error message is shown in the message
window as soon as you start the checker.
