Hi Stoyan,

I defined several inlet and outlet anchor points for 2 ShapedNodes and want to create a link between 2 given anchor points.

But the diagram tool will choose the nearest anchor points to create link instead of the point I choose.

How can I prevent the diagram automaticlly using the nearest anchor point?

Thanks a lot!

Yes, I set RouteLinks to true for the Diagram.
I need the links avoid nodes but keep the given anchor point.

I try to set  diagram.RoutingOptions.Anchoring = Anchoring.Keep, but it doesn't work.

Is it possible to keep the given anchor points and avoid acrossing any other nodes in the same time?

Thanks, Stoyan!

Hi Chris,

Apparently the routing functions sets the anchor points of new links before the method that chooses the one near the mouse position, and that code does not change the anchor when it sees it's already assigned. Our developer will fix this next week. For the time being, you could set AutoRoute from the LinkCreated handler. Then RoutingOptions.KeepAnchoring should work as expected.

Call DiagramLink.ZTop to move links in front of nodes.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan

Hi Stoyan,

I tried the latest dll, but it doesn't work. Would you please give me the link for the hotfix?

Thanks a lot!

The dll I used:https://mindfusion.eu/_beta/latest.diagramming.wpf.zip

Hi Stoyan,

I'm wondering if it will be fixed in a hotfix or in the next release and what is your plan for next release.

By the way, I tried the following version. It works fine. The image quality is much better when you try to enlarge or shrink the images.

This version changes the type of all image properties to ImageSource:

Thanks a lot!

Hi Chris,

Actually this seems to happen when the link's Dynamic property is enabled, and we consider it the correct result in this case. Can you verify if setting Dynamic = false stops the anchor points from being changed in your application?
