How to keep an Active tool ''active'' ?

Hi,
Is there a way to keep the selected drawing tool working? When you draw a rectangle on a diagram, after releasing the mouse button, you have to select the rectangle tool again to draw another rectangle.
I have tried to select that tool again in the NodeCollectionChanged event, but this is probably not enough.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks.

PS: I use VS2005, Syncfusion 5.25.

Hi Stefan ,

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion product.

If your intention is to activate the preceeding tool cursor then it can be done using the code snippet below,

[C#]

Tool tool = this.diagram1.Controller.GetTool("RectangleTool");
tool.SingleActionTool = false;
this.diagram1.Controller.RegisterTool(tool);
this.diagram1.Controller.ActivateTool(tool);


Please let me know if this helps.
