When using a GraphEdit to alter a graph, is there a way to make the edges straight from one vertex to another?

Thanks

Here is my code:

  GraphEdit[
 LayeredGraphPlot[{"C1.4.4" -> "T1.5.7", "1.23" -> "L1.5.4",

   "C1.7.18" -> "R1.7.19" }, VertexLabeling -> True, 
  PlotStyle -> {Arrowheads[{{0.008, 0.6}}]}, 
  PlotRangePadding -> Automatic]]

If I move a vertex, the edge becomes very irregular if it had any curvature in it. I would like to make edges straight without moving all the active points on an edge.

Thanks R.M., I will edit my question to clarify. – 4o3i4h3o4 Jul 15 '12 at 5:15
Hi! Next time try to post the minimal possible amount of code that shows the desired (or undesired :) ) behavior – belisarius Jul 16 '12 at 2:30

I think you are misunderstanding the function usage.

Try this:

Needs["GraphUtilities`"]
GraphEdit[{"C1.4.4" -> "T1.5.7" ...}]

It will open the edit window, where you can play with different options:
