Java; I am am able to draw the Visio diagram with code by using the Dynamic connector property. I want draw diagram with straight lines rather than Dynamic is that possible. Is there any property like straight lines or any way??

I have attached the image with this as well

Thanks for the screenshots.
Please try this sample code:

shape.setConnectorsType(ConnectorsTypeValue.STRAIGHT_LINES);

Thanks.

I had tried that but that dose not worked at all. No effect on diagram.

Could you please share your sample code and file that you are using?
Here is my complete (runnable) sample code for your reference,It works fine and as expected:
Please find attached the input and output for your reference.

       Diagram map = new Diagram( "Drawing11.vsdx");

        // Get a particular page 
       Page page = map.getPages().getPage("Page-3");
        // Get a dynamic connector type shape by id 
        Shape shape = page.getShapes().getShape(18);
        // Set dynamic connector appearance 
        shape.setConnectorsType(ConnectorsTypeValue.STRAIGHT_LINES);

        // Saving Visio diagram 
        map.save( "output.vsdx", SaveFileFormat.VSDX);

We are generating visio from scratch to load shapes and for connectors I am using attached stencils file. And I am using only Dynamic Connector form it. Rest of the code is same. Do I need to use some different stencils to get the straight line?

Thanks for the screenshots.
Could you please share the stencils file?
We will check it soon.
Thanks.

I need to take some permission from my team first. But meanwhile I can attached the screen shots of files. Could you please share any simple sample working code with me? I need to run that locally first. Also please share the updated stencils files with me if there are any. Blocks & BasicShapes.vssx files.

Please refer to this sample code:

      String directory = "yourpath";
      Diagram myDiagram = new Diagram();
      myDiagram.addMaster(directory + "BasicShapes.vssx", "Rectangle");
      myDiagram.addMaster(directory + "BasicShapes.vssx", "Dynamic connector");
      Page myPage = myDiagram.getPages().getPage(0);

      long rectangleID = myPage.addShape(3, 8, "Rectangle");
      Shape rectangle = myPage.getShapes().getShape(rectangleID);

      long rectangle2ID = myPage.addShape(6, 4, "Rectangle");
      Shape rectangle2 = myPage.getShapes().getShape(rectangle2ID);

      long connectorID = myPage.addShape(1, 1, "Dynamic connector");
      Shape connector = myPage.getShapes().getShape(connectorID);

      myPage.connectShapesViaConnector(rectangleID, ConnectionPointPlace.RIGHT, rectangle2ID, ConnectionPointPlace.LEFT, connectorID);
      connector.setConnectorsType(ConnectorsTypeValue.STRAIGHT_LINES);
      // Saving Visio diagram 
      myDiagram.save( "output.vsdx", SaveFileFormat.VSDX);
