Default Port Connection Problem

I have a model with 16 objects connected to 12 other objects. Every one of the 16 objects is connected to every other of the 12 objects. So there are 192 connections. The port order is important in this model since it corresponds to the ID (and global table row) of the objects. When making all the connections I made an error on one of the them. I would rather not have to disconnect every connection after this error and re-connect them all again to maintain the correct order (this would be 96 disonnects and 96 connects). Is there a way using the GUI, Model Tree, or in Code that I can adjust the order of the connections on one object rather than go through the aforementioned pain of re-connecting everything after the error?

Default Solution: Use Edit Selected Objects - Connections

Sorry for the post. I figured out how to do this right afterward. Use the Edit Selected Objects - Connections GUI and the task becomes very easy.

Joe,

In the properties GUI you can edit/check the port connections in the General Tab. This will allow you to delete and reorder port connections. So, if you are evern in doubt again then you can check them there.

Good Luck,
Brandon
