Issue With connectionDefaults.content.visual in kendo UI diagram.

[Manoj]

I want the content to be divide into two lines. But as per [this][1] thread the template function does not allow a line break. So I tried setting `connectionDefaults.content.visual` with the below function:


            var getConnection = function (data) {
            var g = new kendo.dataviz.diagram.Group({
                autoSize: true
            });
            var text1 = new kendo.dataviz.diagram.TextBlock({
                text: data.label.name,
                fontSize: 16
            });


            g.append(text1);

            var text2 = new kendo.dataviz.diagram.TextBlock({
                text: data.label.value,
                fontSize: 16
            });


            g.append(text2);
            return g;
        }
But the problem here is that the `data` field does not populate the connection data due to which assigning values is not possible.


A solution for this is much appreciated.

Hi Manoj,

I am afraid that currently the dataItem is indeed not accessible through the Visual function of the connections. If you will need this feature, the best option I can suggest you is to submit a feature request into our UserVoice portal and we will consider its implementation depending on the items popularity.
