Hi,

Another problem I noticed:

[code]

@Override
public void init() {
super.init();
flowChart = new Diagram();
flowchartView = new DiagramView(flowChart);
flowChart.setSelectionOnTop(false);
flowChart.setShadowsStyle(ShadowsStyle.None);
this.getContentPane().add(flowchartView);
flowChart.setMeasureUnit(GraphicsUnit.Pixel);

flowChart.setAllowUnconnectedLinks(true);
flowChart.setLinkStyle(LinkStyle.Cascading);
flowChart.setSnapToAnchor(SnapToAnchor.OnCreateOrModify);
flowChart.setRouteLinks(true);
flowChart.getRoutingOptions().setTriggerRerouting(
RerouteLinks.WhileCreating);
flowChart.setLinksSnapToBorders(true);

testArrowSnap();
}

private void testArrowSnap() {
one = new ShapeNode(flowChart);
one.setBounds(100, 100, 200, 200);
flowChart.add(one);

two = new ShapeNode(flowChart);
two.setBounds(500, 100, 200, 200);
flowChart.add(two);

DiagramLink arrow = new DiagramLink(flowChart, one, two);
arrow.setStyle(LinkStyle.Polyline);
arrow.setAutoRoute(false);
arrow.setSegmentCount(1);
arrow.getControlPoints().set(0, new Point2D.Float(300, 110));
arrow.getControlPoints().set(1, new Point2D.Float(500, 110));
arrow.setSnapToNodeBorder(true);
flowChart.add(arrow);
}

[/code]

Above I have two DiagramNodes and one DiagramLink connecting them. I have mentioned only one segment, but you will see that the DiagramLink has two segments.

Also when you move the first DiagramNode, the origin of the DiagramLink jumps to the center of the first box. The destination of the DiagramLink is now positioned at the right place (where it was placed during its creation)

If you move the second box only, the origin is at the right place, but the destination is now at the center of the second box.

Some way I can get around this problem too?

Thanks,
Praveen

Hi Stoyan,

Thanks, I see that work alright.

I also have this sort of a code, where on modifying a node, I change its arrows to turn orthogonal.

[code]

flowChart.addDiagramListener(new DiagramAdapter() {
@Override
public void nodeModified(NodeEvent e) {
arrow.setStyle(LinkStyle.Cascading);
}
});

[/code]

Again, the arrow moves to the centers of the two symbols.

Something I can do to fix this?

Thanks,
Praveen

Hi Stoyan,

Here is the whole code:

[code]

private Diagram flowChart;

DiagramView flowchartView;

@Override
public void init() {
super.init();
flowChart = new Diagram();
flowchartView = new DiagramView(flowChart);
flowChart.setSelectionOnTop(false);
flowChart.setShadowsStyle(ShadowsStyle.None);
this.getContentPane().add(flowchartView);
flowChart.setMeasureUnit(GraphicsUnit.Pixel);

flowChart.setAllowUnconnectedLinks(true);
flowChart.setLinkStyle(LinkStyle.Cascading);
flowChart.setSnapToAnchor(SnapToAnchor.OnCreateOrModify);
flowChart.setRouteLinks(true);
flowChart.getRoutingOptions().setTriggerRerouting(
RerouteLinks.WhileCreating);
flowChart.setLinksSnapToBorders(true);

testArrowSnap();
// testArrowDistortion();
}

private void testArrowSnap() {
one = new ShapeNode(flowChart);
one.setBounds(100, 100, 200, 200);
flowChart.add(one);

two = new ShapeNode(flowChart);
two.setBounds(500, 100, 200, 200);
flowChart.add(two);

arrow = new DiagramLink(flowChart, one, two);
arrow.setStyle(LinkStyle.Polyline);
arrow.setAutoRoute(false);
arrow.setSegmentCount(1);
arrow.getControlPoints().set(0, new Point2D.Float(300, 110));
arrow.getControlPoints().set(1, new Point2D.Float(500, 110));
arrow.setSnapToNodeBorder(true);
arrow.updateFromPoints();
flowChart.add(arrow);

flowChart.addDiagramListener(new DiagramAdapter() {
@Override
public void nodeModified(NodeEvent e) {
arrow.setStyle(LinkStyle.Cascading);
}
});
}

DiagramNode one, two;
DiagramLink arrow;

[/code]

The arrows are initially connected to the right side of the first box and the left side of the second close to the top of the two boxes.

When I move either of the boxes, the arrow orgin shifts to the center of the right side of the first box and to the center of the bottom of the second box.

Hi Stoyan,

Thank you, that worked. I lost track of our last discussion, sorry.
