Hi guys, Ive been trying to consistently re-create this strange behavior Ive been getting, but I can't seem to find the exact order of operations. Anyways there are two issues that I need some help with.
First of all, in my diagram I have set it up so that the links do not have to be anchored. However I make them anchor to the nearest anchor point ( the reason for this being that my anchor points are not within the shape itself - they are just outside of it ). Just thought id say this - as it might be related somehow...?

Anyways.. Ive noticed 2 problems. The first is really hard to re-create. Sometimes links won't get selected - even when Im exactly upon them. I wish I could be more helpful, but i can't always re-create the problem. Basically, it seems that i cant select the link segment that is verticle just before it joins with the destination node. Although its not always the case <: S
Also, is there a way I can set the accuracy of the link selection? Currently its too broad for my purposes, I need the link selection to be more precise.

The other issue is that Ive created a container. The container has an anchor point which accepts incomming and outgoing links. Then I place a node in the container and link that anchor point with the node. For some reason the linkstlye algorithm seems to change for that specific link - ie. ive set it up that so that the linkStyle is cascading - but that specific link changes its style to bezier.

Any help on this guys?

Thanks a lot

Thanks Stoyo, any help would be great.

No I dont have a 64 bit machine, its 32 bit, Windows vista.

Regarding the container link - this is whats going on:

When a link is created - if its near an anchor point, it manually sets the link anchor indices. (as the links are technically allowed to be unanchored, but arn't because im doing manual checks )

The source node is the container with the single outgoing / incomming anchor point.

The destination node is the node contained within the container. It has 1 anchor point and it only allows incomming links. So its not self looping.

Also, is there a way to increase the acuracy when selecting links? If you'd like a picture of what is happening I can upload them - but do you know where i can upload the images?

Thanks guys
Mat
