Dragging a new connection from an existing connection using the connection tool usually yields a "ghost" connection for the duration of the drag, indicating that you are dragging a new connection. This doesn't seem to be the case when attempting to create a new connection with the connection tool from an existing connection with bend points. While the mouse is being dragged within the "bounds" of the existing connection's bend points, the ghosted connection is not visible. If the mouse is dragged outside of the bend point boundary, the ghosted connection becomes visible. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a connection between two anchors (with or without the connection tool). 2. Select the new connection and grab the middle bend point, stretch it out to form a "triangle" out of the connection. 3. Select the connection tool and begin a new connection on one side of the triangle and attempt to drag this connection to the opposite side. While you are dragging within the "triangle" formed by the first connection you will notice that the ghosted new connection is not visible. 4. Now drag the same new connection event outside of the "triangle" and notice that the ghosted new connection appears visible. Expected Behavior: Ghosted connection should always be visible. Actual Behavior: Ghosted connection is not visible while dragging a new connection (from an existing connection with the connection tool) within the "bounds" of a connection's bend points.
