Tables overlapping problem

Hi Stoyan,

Thanks again for your support on my last issue posted here. I'm experiencing a "tables overlapping" problem that I can't figure out how to solve it.

I'm using the same diagram settings as I posted on my previous post.
My LayeredLayout is set as:

Code
Select All
LayeredLayout layeredLayout = new LayeredLayout();

            layeredLayout.Anchoring = Anchoring.Reassign;
            layeredLayout.NodeDistance = 20;
            layeredLayout.LayerDistance = 30;
            layeredLayout.SplitLayers = true;
            layeredLayout.Orientation = MindFusion.Diagramming.Layout.Orientation.Horizontal;
            layeredLayout.Direction = Direction.Straight;
            layeredLayout.LinkType = LayeredLayoutLinkType.Cascading;
            layeredLayout.IgnoreNodeSize = false; //important to avoid entitity tables overlapping
            layeredLayout.StraightenLongLinks = true;  



As you can see, I've set IgnoreNodeSize to false and I was convinced this was the way to avoid table to be drawn one upon another because it solved some of the cases where I noticed that tables were overlapping. But recently I discovered another case, where I have 2 short tables and one long table and the long table is overlapped by one of the other two. (I'm drag&dropping database tables into a diagram view)

Is there a way to completely avoid this tables overlapping? If you think it helps, I can send you a screen-shot if you provide me an email.

Thanks,
Bogdan

Hi Stoyan,

Thanks, now it seems to be fixed. The tables are no more overlapping.

Anyways, I've noticed the LinkHeadShape & LinkBaseShape are no more of ArrowHead enum type but a Shape type.
We were using the ArrowHead.DefaultFlow and ArrowHead.RevWithLine link heads. What are their equivalent Shape objects? I didn't find in the Shapes class a shape with the same name as ArrowHeads we used.

I've also noticed a bug when drawing the link head shapes after a zoom action is performed on the view: the link heads positions are wrong. But maybe its normal as this version is not yet released.

-thanks,
Bogdan

Hi Bogdan,

Now the static ArrowHeads class exposes the built-in arrowheads as properties with the same name as they had in the ArrowHead enum. We are preparing a more official beta release for next week and the zoom should be fixed there.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan
