	Hi Lutz, If you mean this for applet mode, call the suspendRepaint() and resumeRepaint() methods of DiagramView. You can see them used in the onGotNames function in the OrgBrowser example. I hope that helps, Stoyan

	Hi Stoyan, i'm adding a MindFusion.Diagramming.Wpf.DiagramView object containing the diagram to a System.Windows.Controls.DockPanel and in that case there are no such methods defined in DiagramView. It would be very kind, if you could give me a hint for this case. Thx Lutz

	Oh, I didn't notice this is for the WPF control. Are you adding the items from a timer?

	No. I have tested the Opacity property of UIElement for my purpose, but it didn't work. Next i have tried it with two views using InactiveOpacity = 0.0 and activating one of them after loading, but it didn't work.

	I have never seen the diagram appearance being updated while elements are added from a loop; could you post you xaml and C# item-loading code here? In any case, you could add the Diagram to the WPF visual tree only after all items have been added to it. Stoyan
