    <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Manual Connections&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You can manually make multiple connections by connection to or from a group of selected objects.  simultaneously by Shift or Ctrl selecting a group of objects (which puts 
red boxes around them) and then dragging a connection to or from the 
selection group. All members of the selection group will have the 
connection made.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="65-portconnections-groups.gif"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1493289iDDED7B8D3278D479/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="65-portconnections-groups.gif" alt="65-portconnections-groups.gif" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Create Connections Programmatically &lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You can also make connections programmatically using the command &lt;A href="https://answers.flexsim.com/content/kbentry/14005/contextdragconnection-4.html"&gt;contextdragconnection()&lt;/A&gt;.

      <title>Automatically create port connections</title>
      <link>https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/flexsim-forum/automatically-create-port-connections/m-p/13481228#M767</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;How can I automatically create connections from one object to multiple objects?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;In my simulation model, I manually created connections between a queue and many rack objects. It's quite time consuming. I am sure there is an automatic way, maybe using some code in a script to realize this?&lt;/P&gt;</description>
