 Members

	Member name	Description
	Modify	Items can be selected and modified. New items cannot be created.
	DrawShapes	Drawing with the mouse creates ShapeNode instances.
	DrawLinks	Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink. Otherwise a lasso rectangle is displayed allowing the selection of items.
	LinkShapes	A mode that is suitable for creating flowcharts and process diagrams. Drawing over empty document area creates a ShapeNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	LinkTables	A mode that is suitable for creating entity-relationship diagrams. Drawing over empty document area creates a TableNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	DrawTables	Drawing with the mouse creates TableNode instances.
	DrawControls	Drawing with the mouse creates ControlNode instances.
	LinkControls	Drawing over empty document area creates a ControlNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	DoNothing	The control ignores users actions with the mouse, but raises the appropriate mouse events. This mode allows applications to implement their own mouse-drawing behavior, disabling the MvcDiagram default response to users actions.
	Custom	Specifies that user input will be handled by the BehaviorBase-derived object assigned to CustomBehavior.
	DrawContainers	Drawing with the mouse creates ContainerNode instances.
	LinkContainers	Drawing over empty document area creates a ContainerNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	Pan	Dragging with the mouse pans the view.
	DrawTreeViews	Drawing with the mouse creates TreeViewNode instances.
	LinkTreeViews	Drawing over empty document area creates a TreeViewNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	DrawSvgNodes	Drawing with the mouse creates SvgNode instances.
	LinkSvgNodes	Drawing over empty document area creates an SvgNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	SelectOnly	Allow only selection of existing items. Modifying them or drawing new ones is disabled.
	Magnify	Dragging the mouse magnifies the view. Interactive creation or modification of items is disabled.
	DrawVisioNodes	Drawing with the mouse creates VisioNode instances.
	LinkVisioNodes	Drawing over empty document area creates a VisioNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	DrawBarcodes	Drawing with the mouse creates BarcodeNode instances.
	LinkBarcodes	Drawing over empty document area creates a BarcodeNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	DrawFreeForms	Drawing with the mouse creates FreeFormNode instances.
	LinkFreeForms	Drawing over empty document area creates a FreeFormNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	DrawFreeShapes	Points from user input are shown using a FreeFormNode instance. Once the user finishes drawing, the FreeFormNode is replaced by a ShapeNode with a matching shape from Diagram.FreeFormTargets list.
	LinkFreeShapes	Points from user input are shown using a FreeFormNode instance. Once the user finishes drawing, the FreeFormNode is replaced by a ShapeNode with a matching shape from Diagram.FreeFormTargets list. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	PanAndModify	Items can be selected and modified. New items cannot be created, and dragging without grabbing an adjustment handle pans the view.
	MoveNodes	Dragging with the mouse moves the node under mouse pointer.
	Zoom	Dragging with the mouse draws a lasso tool that zooms the diagram view to selected rectangular area.
	MoveLabels	Dragging with the mouse moves the label under mouse pointer.

 Remarks

Set the Behavior property to specify how MvcDiagram interprets user's actions. In all modes:

• single clicking selects the item under the mouse pointer and make it the ActiveItem;
• dragging while CTRL is pressed creates multiple selection;
• dragging while ALT is pressed pans the view;
