Hi,

 

I am using RadDiagram to display a list of hexagons grouped in containers. The hexagons are displayed in the order that I add them to containers,

however the containers do not respect the order they are added when using AutoLayout.

 

Is there a way to use autolayout but still respect the order the items were added? (Top left to bottom right order).

Hi Tulio,

The autolayout mechanism doesn't have an API that allows you to customize it. There is a DiagramLayoutComplete event which you can check, but this won't be very convenient to use. In your case I can suggest you to manually order to shapes added to the container using their Position property. I've attached a small example showing my idea. Can you check it out and let me know if it helps?
