	Hi, I have created a groupNode of some childNode and made it transparent. Now when I click on Group Button, I get all the child node inside that groupNode but when I drag this groupNode, all childNode gets invisible. I want two things. 1. I want to see all child nodes every time (includes while dragging) in that groupNode. 2. I want to access any child node while they are inside the group (like I want to perform DoubleClick on childNode which is inside a groupNode. Regards, Bala

	Hi, You can access the child nodes through the SubordinateGroup property of the group node. There are a few problems in the group methods in the project you sent us. First, in the nodeGroup() method, calling diagram.Factory.CreateShapeNode automatically adds the node to Diagram.Nodes, so you should not call diagram.Nodes.Add(n) after that. The Factory methods are just a shortcut to using the new operator to create an object and calling Nodes.Add(). Second, in the CreateGroup method you call child.AttachTo(node, 90, 90, 90, 90). This sets the child nodes width and height to zero when the group is moved. Call child.AttachTo(node, AttachToNode.TopLeft) and the group will work as you expect. I hope that helps, Stoyan

	Hi Stoyan, Many thanks for the reply First,its woking Second,I am still unable to perform any operation on child Node(which are inside a parent node). Is their any way to put groupNode in back(like put to back or bring in front kind of functionality) so that front member(childs) can be accessed ? Regards, Bala

	Hi, Set groupNode.ZIndex = 0. I hope that helps, Stoyan
