Hi guys! I have noticed a strange behaviour connected with dragging DiagramNodeTools from DiagramToolBox: when I click on one of the elements and don't drag it anywhere and then click again and try to drag it on a Surface the node is not dragged but it's CursorVisual is being resized. I have attached a picture demonstrating this behaviour. Is there a way to turn this resizing off so that each time I would be able to drag a tool? Cheers, Przemo |

Hello The resizing behaviour is a built-in feature. By doing a single click on a node tool, the cursor will go into a 'charged' state. The user can then click and drag on the diagram surface to create and resize the node at the same time. Pressing 'Esc' or the right mouse button will cancel this operation. Performing the resizing after clicking on the diagram tool box however is a bug. I have now resolved this and you can get this fix through the nightly builds from tomorrow the 30th of August. Now when the cursor is in its charged state, clicking on the tool box will also cancel the operation. The user can then drag another tool. Note that cancelling the charged cursor and dragging another tool can not be done in the same mouse click due to issues with mouse capture. This fix makes the UI easier to understand. Let us know if you still need an option to completly disable the charged cursor feature. - Jason |

Hi, Thanks for respond. Yes, I do need this option because I have some DiagramNodeTools which I don't want to resize at any time. Cheers, Przemo |

Hello I have added a property called IsDragResizeEnabled to DiagramNodeTool and DiagramToolBoxGroup. You can set this to false for individual node tools, or for all the tools in a particular group in the toolbox. This will be available through the nightly builds from tomorrow the 1st of September. - Jason |
