Hello

I am still learning org charts and have a simple question...why did the style change and how would I do this manually?

I actually need both styles on this org chart, just not in this spot and I am not sure how to do this manually.

Hi ​@Nick U, thank you for posting in the Community!

If I understand correctly, you are referring to Layout styles as shown below?:

These can be changed by selecting the entire org chart > in the Contextual panel, three Layout styles can be chosen from, as such:

Unfortunately, it is currently not supported by Lucid to combine different Layout styles in one org chart. A workaround here would be setting up the org chart manually instead of making use of the org chart functionality.

Alternatively, it is possible to combine shape styles by selecting the shapes of your choice on the canvas > selecting the shape style in the Contextual panel.

Other users have expressed interest in seeing such improvements in the Lucid org chart feature, therefore I highly recommend upvoting and commenting on the ideas below: 

Additionally, for more tips on the customization of Lucid org charts, I suggest going through this Community post:

Hi Zuzia

Thank you for replying...did you happen to look at the screen shot that I posted to IMGUR?  It seems like the style changed on my org chart.  You will see the connecter changes to the middle of each shape instead of the left side?  I have never seen that happen before and wondering who would I do that manually.
