	Hi, We are using ShapeNode as a master node in our application. We have attached some nodes with it using AttachedTo method as childs of this main node. We want to put some controls as well inside this master node(as the child of this master node). Is it possible to put some controls like Button,Slider etc as child of ShapeNode? How? Please let us know your suggestion. Regards, Anshul

	Yes, try this: Code var button = new Button(); var node = new DiagramNodeAdapter(diagram, button); node.Bounds = new Rect(10, 10, 60, 30); diagram.Nodes.Add(node); node.AttachTo(masterNode, AttachToNode.TopLeft); I hope that helps, Stoyan

	Hi Stoyan, We are facing two problems with this approach Problems: 1. We have created attached button but it is not coming in front. It goes behind and not visible to user. 2. Resizable handle is appearing over the button. We don�t want this resize handle over the button, we don�t want to resize it. We have sent a snap shot for the problems, stated above. Please let us know your suggestion. Regards, Anshul

	Call node.AttachTo(mainNode) instead of mainNode.AttachTo(node) and it appears as expected, and I guess that's what you had in mind originally.

	Hi Stoyan, We have attached a DiagramNodeAdapter with a ShapeNode. In DiagramNodeAdapter we have added some UIElement like Button,Slider,ComboBox etc. When we try to move this node, we want if mouse is over any UIElement than Node should not move. It should move only when mouse is directly over the Node. Exa- When we try to change value of slider by dragging the slider button, it moves the node and also changes the value of slider. In this case node should not move because we want to change the the value of the slider. We have tried many events to keep focus on the slider but not got success. Please let us know how to solve this problem. Regards, Anshul

	Hi, Handle the slider's PreviewMouseMove event like this: Code void button_PreviewMouseMove(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { if (e.LeftButton == MouseButtonState.Pressed && diagram.Interaction != null) diagram.CancelDrag(); } We'll see if we can add some built-in support for this for the next release.

	Hi, This version adds a MouseInputMode property to DiagramNodeAdapter - https://mindfusion.eu/_beta/wpfdiag232_mouseinput.zip Set it to HandledByHostedControl for interactive controls such as sliders and scrollbars. I hope that helps, Stoyan
