	Hello, It is possible to set the start/end orientation of a link from his anchor point. Currently the anchor point is attached on the left side of the node and the routed link starts horizontally. What i want is that the links start vertically.

	Hi, do you mean you want the link to be routed vertically along the node's vertical left side?

	Hi, Yes, thats is what i want. It's a custom draw node with an anchor point on the left vertical side and the attached link should be vertical.

	Would this kind of locking work for you? http://mindfusion.eu/Forum/YaBB.pl?board=fcnet_disc;action=display;num=128332086... We could implement it for the next release if it's such a popular feature.

	Hi, It seems GridRouter has some support for this. Try the following settings. Code diagram.RouteLinks = true; diagram.RoutingOptions.StartOrientation = Orientation.Vertical; diagram.RoutingOptions.EndOrientation = Orientation.Vertical; diagram.LinkRouter = new GridRouter(); If that will work for you, we can make it customizable per individual anchor points or links.

	Hello, these settings works for this type of node. But we have many other nodes which then routed wrong. I think it must be a customizable per anchor point.

	Ok, we'll try to add an AnchorPoint property that lets you specify that for the next release.

	This version adds LinkOrientation property to AnchorPoint: https://mindfusion.eu/_beta/wpfdiag_aporient.zip At this time it works only when using GridRouter. In addition RoutingOptions.Anchoring must be different from Ignore, and the link's shape must be set to Cascading. I hope that helps, Stoyan
