Skip to main contentWireless connections let you hide visual lines between gems on the canvas while retaining the logical connection between gems.
This option lets you reduce visual clutter, making large or evolving pipelines easier to read.
Wireless connections affect only the canvas presentation. They do not change execution order, data dependencies, or runtime behavior.
Make connections wireless
You can convert wired connections into wireless ones from a gem’s action menu.
To make a connection wireless:
-
Click the gem whose connection you want to modify.
-
Open the gem’s action menu (
...).
-
Select one of the following options:
- Make incoming connection wireless.
- Make outgoing connection wireless.
The visual line disappears, but the data flow between the gems is preserved.
For gems with multiple incoming or outgoing connections, you can make all connections wireless by choosing a Make incoming connections wireless or Make outgoing connections wireless option.
Restore wired connections
To restore visual connections:
-
Click the gem with wireless connections.
-
Open the gem’s action menu (
...).
-
Select one of the following options:
- Make incoming connection wired.
- Make outgoing connection wired.
The visual connection lines are restored.
When to use wireless connections
Wireless connections are most effective when:
- Pipelines contain many parallel branches or long cross-canvas connections.
- You want to reorganize or refactor a pipeline without rearranging large sections of the canvas.
- Visual clarity is more important than showing every physical connection.
