  • Explicit-disconnectors remain in connector space after deleting

    —

    in

    After exporting some deletes, I noticed that the objects remained as placeholders in the connector space, with a state of explicit-disconnector. The issue this causes is that if the object needs to be re-added to the connector space, it can’t be, because a duplicate anchor value is generated. In the end, the cause of this…
