If I want to make a connection like this, with two arrows:

Foo  <----
 |       |
Bar ------

it's actually impossible, which is sad when you want to create "loops"

i hope i made it clear

it would improve the app to be able to do that

What would be the use-case to create loops in a mind map? Is Foo <----> Bar not enough?

I guess this could be possible to implement, but would have some side-effects.

Well, i'm making a diagram in order to have instructions to follow. At one point, the instruction is to go back to step 2 for example

A nice (second) zigzag/curved arrow is all it needs

@BarbzYHOOL Try https://www.yworks.com/products/yed. The Heimer/Scapple use case is natural efficiency. yed is anything but efficient, but it can do just about anything.

I realized that in my current use case, i might not even need this feature (i could create another bubble to link them)

Yeah, I tried Yed, it was horrible. I've found two other alternatives that are very good as well, hard to decide which one to use between the three :D I just wanted to give my suggestion regardless of my choice

@BarbzYHOOL yed is great for complex diagrams, though. I think you may also make use of templates to recreate Heimer/Scapple.

Which other two did you find? Might help someone else.
