Topology view : How to change Topology view settings in 4.2 release
Recently I upgraded iTest from 4.1 to 4.2 and istallation was successful. But after installation topology view got changed. Because of this changed view I could not find the connectiones between the nodes properly if there are too many connections. Please find the attached snapshots for the change in topology view. Please guide me in changing the view so that I can view the connections between the nodes in a clear manner (i can say as manhattan view i guess). attached snap shots: 1. topologyview_4.2 -> the topology changed ![alt text][1] 2. topologyview_4.1_ExpectedView -> the topology that was there earlier. ![alt text][2] [1]:

In the latest iTest new feature was added: links may be drawn with user-specified band points. To test this feature you may drag some point of link and see how link is changing it's shape. So all links are polylines. For each link you may specify, should it be curved or strong polyline: when link is selected go to "Properties" view and change "Routing" property to "curve" or "strong". It looks like this feature disabled auto-layouting for links. So for old topologies links became polylines with two band points ("start" and "end"). It's needed to be fixed to save old view for existing topologies.
Thank you for the reply.I got your solution, I am able to see "curve" and "strong" options in iTest4.2 and also observed the difference in the topology diagrams. But the above problem is little bit different. While iTest updated from 4.1 to 4.2 the topologies became like in the first diagram. But few people didnt get this problem. Is there any setting while updating from 4.1 to 4.2?
