Get scrollbars to show when MeasureUnit is pixel (Read 4374 times)

	I have a FlowChart.NET component as the main control in a MdiChild form, and I have MeasureUnit set to Pixel. I have multiple nodes on the diagram which are roots of trees. Whenever I drag the root over so that the child nodes are not visible, the scroll bars do not show up automatically. I have tried many solutions, but have not been able to get them to show. Is this a bug? Or do I need to add some magic when I have MeasureUnit set to Pixel?

	Set a larger Diagram.Bounds value, or enable AutoResize. I hope that helps, Stoyan

	Okay, I did this by using the following code: RectangleF diagramBounds = ScriptDiagram.Bounds; diagramBounds.Width = Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width; diagramBounds.Height = Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height; ScriptDiagram.Bounds = diagramBounds; That gets the scroll bars to show up, but if drag items out of the viewable region, the scoll bar does not update. If I add a call to ResizeToFitAllItems, then the scroll bars disappear all together.

	Don't the scrollbars update if you set AutoResize to AllDirections or RightAndDown, and then drag a node?

	No, they do not. I am using ControlNodes, and handling the dragging logic myself by adjusting the location of the node on the form. I suppose this is what's causing the issue. Is there a function I can call after I relocated a node to get the scroll bars to update?

	AutoResize and ResizeToFitItems should work, as long as ControlNode.Bounds corresponds to the hosted control's Location. If you are setting Location yourself, are you also updating the node's Bounds? Stoyan

	Yes, I am. The code I"m using to move the control is: RectangleF bounds = node.Bounds; bounds.Location = newLocation; node.Bounds = bounds;

	Have you added the child nodes to the diagram? They might be drawn on screen as a part of the tree group, but if you haven't added them to Diagram.Nodes, they will be ignored when calculating the new diagram size. Stoyan

	I'm still having this issue. If I add an item at the end that goes off the screen, the scroll bar shows up correctly. However, whenever I move the root of the tree where child nodes are outside of the viewable area, the scrollbars do not show up. Although I'm adjusting the Bounds of the root node, and the child nodes are being drawn correctly, it appears their bounds are not being updated, or the diagram is not getting the correct notifications from Arrange to show the scroll bars

	Okay, I figured it out. After moving the control, I wasn't calling Arrange on the various tree layout objects. Once I did that, everything is working as expected.

	It turns out this still isn't resolved. If I have a link from a child node to another node in the viewable area, then the scroll bars show up. But if I only have a single tree layout, it does not work. If I move the root of the tree, do I need to update the bounds for all child nodes as well?

	Usually moving the root node does not move the child nodes, unless you have used AttachTo to create a group. After moving the root, you could reapply TreeLayout to move the children as well. After applying a layout, call ResizeToFitItems to update the diagram.Bounds.
