	What I want is to restrict certain shapes within one big lane shape. I also want those shapes to travel with the big lane when its height is being resized by user using handles. I furthermore want the height to be restricted to minimum of the top of the blue shapes if they belong within the lane.

	You could attach the shapes to the lane node using AttachTo method to make them follow the lane when it's moved. If you also set their Constraints.KeepInsideParent property, you shouldn't be able to move them out of the lane. Setting laneNode.Cosntraints.MinHeight to the distance from lane's top to its children should let you prevent making the lane smaller. I hope that helps, Stoyan

	I'm going to try that. One thing, how do I find child node that is closest to the lane top? Is there a way to get all attached child nodes?

	You can find attached nodes via mainNode.SubordinateGroup. I hope that helps, Stoyan
