Hi Stoyan

I'm not sure if this has been asked before by myself or anyone else, but a search did not yeild what I was looking for - do you have a segement of code that demonstrates the ability to make a node ignore mouse input so tht the nodes UiElement can react to mouse input as if it was not in a DiagramNode?
An example is tryingto drag-select - the mousedown is caught by the node and the diagram objects start trying to interpret the movement. Initially we had used CancelDrag() within the Node.Modifying event off of the Diagram, but this would still seem to be interfering with the input.


Many thanks

Hi,

I couldn't run the samples because of missing licenses for the chart component you are using. However I can see your BehaviorEx class overrides only the StartDraw method - this is not enough because some common actions for all behaviors are executed outside this method. You must also override BehaviorBase.OnMouseDown, and do not call the base implementation when (node.UIElement is Chart).

I hope that helps,
Stoyan

Hi Paul,

The interaction actually starts in response to the first MouseMove event. Could you try overriding MouseMove in the same manner as MouseDown?

Stoyan

It seems it's enough to override OnMouseMove like this:

protected override void OnMouseMove(Point mousePosition)
{
	DiagramNode node = Diagram.GetNodeAt(mousePosition, true, false);
	if (node != null && node.UIElement is Chart)
	{
		Diagram.ReleaseMouseCapture();
		return;
	}

	base.OnMouseMove(mousePosition);
} 

I hope that helps,
Stoyan
