However, I do agree that it would be nice to have a predicate that would allow you to specify a new shape for each node, it is just that I did not find yet a suitable solution. Ideas are welcome.

thanks Doru, I will try this solution. It is not really bad but I think that I will have a problem with the specification of the layout of the nodes!! I am not sure now, so I will try to see. May be I will find the time for enhance the BorderShape to allow for drawing dashed lines. bests, Hani > Hi Hani, > > At this moment, if you want to have different shape objects you would > need to specify them manually for each node.
