Hi Maria

XamDiagram nodes are being created from a datasource and control is positioning the nodes on the canvas. However user does interact and able to re position them. This sound basic requirement to me and I thought should be part of this controls.

Nonetheless, can you please suggest best workaround to acquire position information of all the nodes and then re-apply these through code?

Thanks.

Hello Jake,

The XamDiagram nodes in the attached sample project are automatically created, loaded and positioned based on the data set as source. The Persistence Framework, on the other hand, saves and loads the elements’ properties and does not interact with the data source and the position of the elements is being recalculated when the data source is set for the re-loaded XamDiagram.

You can suggest saving and loading diagram nodes position when the nodes are auto-generated based on the data source as a new product idea for future versions at http://ideas.infragistics.com.
