  Just clarifying. This is in Harlowe.

  The Automatically Create Missing Passage(s) and the Show Passage Connections for Passage Links features of the Twine 2 application only support Standard Markup based Links.
  
  eg. Text and Target the same or Text->Target or Target
  
  Each Story Format has different ways to create passage links and currently the Twine 2 application only supports the ones that are common to all Story Formats.
  
  Some people have worked out "tricks"or "hacks" to fool the Passage Connections feature in to showing arrows for Macro-based and Advanced Markup based links but I can't find the relevant threads.

  I've come across this - my work around is to have an invisible link at the bottom of the passage which will create the map link - i.e.
  

  (link: "cup")[(set: $container to "cup")(goto: "Picking Flavors")]
  
  <!--Invisible link to link to the continuing passage in the story map-->
  [[ |Picking Flavors]]
  

  
  I've seen other examples where people wrap an if around the 'invisible' link to ensure it never shows, probably better practice to be honest.

  I guess I'll wait until the app has caught up with the language. I shouldn't be in workaround territory within 20 minutes of writing my first passage... Back to Inklewriter. :-(

  Each Story Format defines it's own macro language syntax and list of available macros (if it has a macro language), it also defines the HTML structure and default CSS used by the story and it's engine, and all other features available to the Author.
