Good day,

I am having what seems to be a very odd problem with the creation of some boxes.

I set up a flowchart in the form.new event, and I load a set of boxes from a database in the form.load event.  My problem is that when I do a drag and drop of a shape on to the flowchart and create a shape with almost identical code some of the properties of the new box do not seem to work.

I am using the following code at the end of both the data driven box creation, and the D&D box creation:
               b.HandlesStyle = HandlesStyle.MoveOnly
               b.Constraints.KeepInsideParent = True
               b.Constraints.MoveDirection = DirectionConstraint.Horizontal
               b.Obstacle = True

The problem is that on the D&D create I can still - resize the new boxes, drag them anywhere on the flowchart (no movement restriction), and the "hatch outline" that is part of the MoveOnly does not seem to appear.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jeff

Thank you so much!!

It was a bug in my code.  I had an unhandled exception prior to the final box setup code that caused the drop routine to exit prematurely.

It only happened in the case where there was NOT an image associated with the box, so I didn't see that it was connected to the image loading code.
