Drag multiple nodes disabled when .EditStyle.AllowMoveY = false

[John McAteer]

If I set nodes .EditStyle.AllowMoveY = false then when multiple nodes are selected and dragged together the nodes will not move.

Is this intentional?

Is there a workaround?

Thanks

Hi John,

Thanks for using Syncfusion Products.

Since by default the nodes will not move when the EditStyle.AllowMoveX and EditStyle.AllowMoveX property of the nodes is set to false. If your intention is to move the multiple nodes. We suggest you to set these properties to true for all selected nodes and after the nodes are deselected you can to reset these properties. Please refer the below code snippet to achieve this.

[C#]
  this.diagram1.MouseUp += new MouseEventHandler(diagram1_MouseUp);
  this.diagram1.EventSink.NodeDeselected += new NodeSelectedEventHandler(EventSink_NodeDeselected);
  void EventSink_NodeDeselected(NodeSelectedEventArgs evtArgs)
        {
            if(evtArgs.Node !=null)
            foreach (Node node in ProtectedNodes)
            {
                node.EditStyle.AllowMoveX = false;
            }
        }

        void diagram1_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
        {
             
            if(this.diagram1.Controller.SelectionList.Count >1)
            foreach (Node node in this.diagram1.View.SelectionList)
            {
                if (node.EditStyle.AllowMoveX == false)
                {
                    ProtectedNodes.Add(node);
                    
                }
                node.EditStyle.AllowMove = true;
            }
          
        }

We have created a simple sample to demonstrate this and the same can be downloaded from the below link.
