发明名称 Method and system for creating logical connections in a data processing system
摘要 <p>A method and system for efficiently creating connections between a new graphic object and at least one of a plurality of existing graphic objects displayed within a graphic editor. In response to a placement of a new graphic object in a location within the graphic editor, each existing graphic object within the plurality of graphic objects located within a predetermined distance from the new graphic object is identified. A connection is automatically created between the new object and each identified existing graphic object. A position for each identified existing graphic object is determined, wherein the position for each identified existing graphic object is determined with respect to the location of the new graphic object. A logical function between the new graphic object and a identified existing graphic object is established in response to a creation of a connection between the new graphic object and the identified existing graphic object, wherein the established logical function is a type of logical function that is determined by the position of the identified existing graphic object with respect to the new graphic object, wherein connections between graphic objects are efficiently created. &lt;IMAGE&gt;</p>
