           Summary: Emply the use of Splines
           Product: umbrello
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: umbrello-devel.kde.org
        ReportedBy: prophecy corpranet net


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.1)
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 3.4.4 (Gentoo 3.4.4, ssp-3.4.4-1.0, pie-8.7.8) 
OS:                Linux

Currently Umbello uses vectors of stright lines to represent the associations between objects.  I think that it would be great if Umbrello could support a spline style connection.  I originally thought that this would be an easy addition but have since found that QT does not have a nice spline object that can use a pen.  I have since started to make one in the hopes that I can integrate it with Umbrello to give nice smooth lines.  

I can see one or two small problems looming but I think they can be eventually overcome.

What do other people think?  good idea or bad idea?
