Create group from already positioned nodes

Hi,

I have sets of Boxes already on the chart, and then call a 'Create Border' function to draw a box around these boxes (and add some padding).

I would like to now group these as children to the 'Border' box, but all the group.attach style functions require me to specify where the children are place in relationship to the main box.

Can I create a group that maintains the layout of the boxes on the chart, so I can move all the nodes programatically, simply by moving the border box?

Thanks in advance

All styles supported by Node.AttachTo, except the proportional one, preserve the original children layout when simply moving the parent box. E.g. use the AttachToNode.TopLeft style. The difference between the styles is in how they handle resizing the parent box.
