Delete node with confirmation

[bgener]

Hi,

Is there any possibility to display confirmation box when user attempts to delete the node from the diagram (by pressing the key "Delete"). I'm trying to accomplish it in the following way:
void EventSink_NodeCollectionChanging(CollectionExEventArgs evtArgs)
{
if (evtArgs.ChangeType == CollectionExChangeType.Remove)
{
DialogResult dialogResult = MessageBox.Show(""...);

}
}

The main issue is when I'm trying to delete multiple items then the message box is displayed for each node which is being deleted. E.g. if I'm trying to delete 100 nodes this messagebox will be displayed 1000 times.

From other hands the following approach does not work too:

private void diagram1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Delete)
{
DialogResult dialogResult = MessageBox.Show(...);
}
}

Because the event is raised after the node was deleted (that is, after the events NodeCollectionChanging and NodeCollectionChanged)

Could you please help me to find possible solution?

Best regards,
Borys

At the start of NodeCollectionChanging ask the user if they want to delete the node and add an "Do the same for all nodes" option check box.
Then, you apply the same logic to each changing event.
