is it possible to move a boxe after having created/attached it into another box. if it possible,  can we make the Handelstyle of the box we wanted to move visible and forbiden the box to be moved outside of the box they are created in?

Hi,

I can't think of any easy way to do that. We can add some new members to Node.Constraints to let you specify the boundaries in which a box can be moved.

hi ,

ain't any way to set the handle boxes of visible on the box we have created in other boxes ? cause when we have selected then , we can delete them , show contextmenu , but we can't see that they are selected  Undecided (i've tryde the set the Zindex of the box they're created in to 0 etc , but it dont seems to work, the handlebox are still invisible )

Hi, what HandlesStyle value is used for the contaied boxes ? If it is some of the Invisible* styles, change it to say SquareHandles. You can disable moving a box by setting EnabledHandles = None.

hi ,
handlestyle is set to squarehandle but when i click on it the handlestyle is not displayed. maybe is it because I've created the box over another box??


ps: i can see the handlestyle when i set  "fc.ModificationStart" to "AutoHandles" just a second , after that its like i didn't selected it

Hi,

Are the selection handles enabled or disabled for that box?  What is the value of the flowchart's ShowDisabledHandles and DisabledMnpColor ? If you examine the Selection.Boxes collection - is that box in there after you click it ?

even if i set
Code
Select All
Private Sub fc_boxClicked(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As MindFusion.FlowChartX.BoxMouseArgs) Handles fc.BoxClicked
		    e.Box.HandlesStyle = HandlesStyle.SquareHandles
	  e.Box.EnabledHandles = [Handles].All
	  e.Box.Selected = True
		   End If
    End Sub


it don't seems to work.
nevermind, i'll do it in another way, i'll set the fc.modificationstart to autohandles when i enter in those kind of boxes and reset it to selectedOnly when i'm out of those.
thx for the help, you've done a great job  Wink

That's very strange, can you email us that diagram saved in a file so our developers check what happens ?

Thanks

Thanks,

It seems that happens because of the

fc.Behavior = BehaviorType.CreateBox

line in MouseMove. That has the side effect of clearing the selection. You might try saving a reference to the selected object before changing the behavior, and then select it again.
