Graph Overlay

Hello,

I'm a newbie in FlowChart.NET.  I've been trying to find information on how I might be able to do this ---

I have two graphs, A and B.  I'd like to be able to put graph A on top of graph B.  The locations of graph B's nodes are dependent on the position of graph A's nodes.  I'm wondering what might be the best way to do this?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,

Could you post a drawing or screenshot that shows what kind of layout you need?

If a group of nodes from B should always stick to a node from A, you could move the B nodes somewhere near the A one for all groups, call BNode.AttachTo(ANode), and finally apply a layout using the KeepGroupLayout property.

If you don't need automatic layout but will let the users draw the graph, you might lock the nodes from graph A and move them to the bottom of the Z order, and only allow editing the nodes from B.

that's a good idea.  i'll try to do that - lock the nodes in A, etc.   i was just wondering before if flowchart.net has some merge feature that automatically sets that up with two graphs.

thanks!!!
