	My main chart boxes have other small boxes attached to them using the ShapeNode.SubordinateGroup feature. The software can hide these extra boxes by setting Visible to false - this reduces screen clutter for users. However when I call TreeLayout.Arrange() the extra space I hoped to save is not closed up - the size of the invisible boxes is taken into account. Is this correct? If it's a breaking change to change the functionality could we have a optional parameter to the .Arrange() function to ignore invisible boxes? pic4 shows the situation before boxes and made invisible and pic5 is after they are made invisible and .Arrange() called. The spacing is the same. DavidL

	If all attached nodes are hidden, you could run TreeLayout with KeepGroupLayout set to false. If you hide only some of them, try also changing their position to be inside main node's Bounds while invisible. Regards, Slavcho Mindfusion

	or you might toggle TreeLayout.NodeDistance between full and decluttered values. Regards, Slavcho Mindfusion

	The first solution works well. I move the invisible icons behind the main box when hiding them and move them back when making them visible. Many Thanks DavidL
