Maybe I'm missing it, but I can't seem to find a way to remove the arrows from the connectors. Is that possible?

Just posting our Discord chat here for visibility @NorseGaud.

At the moment there is no way to switch off connector arrows (reason is that I've been listening to a lot of Simon Brown's videos on Architecture Diagramming, and one point he makes is that defining the direction of relationships generally helps with diagram readability, and so Isoflow has become opinionated on that point). I'm not completely opposed to ambiguous connectors however, however please help me understand; are you looking for a way to show a bi-directional relationship (i.e. do you actually need dual arrows)? or is the direction simply irrelevant in your particular context (and so you just want a way to switch off the arrow altogether)?

The more I think about it, the more I really really dislike the look of groups for infrastructure components.
In v1 I was using this:

But in v2, I have arrows if I try to do this. I can use a group to symbolize the Mac Mini, but it doesn't jive with how I'm using Groups in other places of the graph.

Ah, if I put the VM icons close enough, the arrow doesn't show up. I think that's a good solution for now.

It seems that you can also drag the arrows out of visibility. Not sure if that was intended.
