 Members

	Member name	Description
	Custom	Specifies that user input should be handled by the BehaviorBase-derived object assigned to CustomBehavior.
	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 default response to users actions.
	DrawContainers	Drawing with the mouse creates ContainerNode instances.
	DrawControls	Drawing with the mouse creates ControlHost instances.
	DrawLinks	Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink. Otherwise a lasso rectangle is displayed allowing the selection of items.
	DrawShapes	Drawing with the mouse creates ShapeNode instances.
	DrawTables	Drawing with the mouse creates TableNode instances.
	DrawTreeViews	Drawing with the mouse creates TreeViewNode instances.
	LinkContainers	Drawing over empty document area creates a ContainerNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	LinkControls	Drawing over empty document area creates a ControlHost instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	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.
	LinkTreeViews	Drawing over empty document area creates a TreeViewNode instance. Drawing started over a node creates a DiagramLink.
	Magnify	Dragging with the mouse displays the magnifier tool.
	Modify	Objects can be selected and modified. New objects cannot be created.
	Pan	Dragging with the mouse pans the view. This requires that the Diagram is contained in a ScrollViewer.
	SelectOnly	Allow only selection of existing items. Modifying them or drawing new ones is disabled.

 Remarks

Set the Behavior property to specify how MindFusion.Diagramming 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;
