Invoke a connection manipulation from code

[Gary]

Hi,

Is there any way we can begin a connection manipulation from code?

Specifics:

We want to have a context menu item on a RadDiagramShape, that when clicked gets the associated Connection, sets the connection's Source to null and effectively puts the connection into attaching / moving mode, so that the connection source end point effectively snaps to the mouse position and allows the user to reattch it to another RadDiagramShape / node.

We can easily get the relevant connection but how do we begin this user manipulation?

Gary.

Hi Gary,

I understand your requirement. Unfortunately, the RadDiagramConnection does not support moving through code.

However, you are allowed to update its Source and Target properties. Is it possible for you to predefine those properties and update them on a button click - rather than freely moving the target point where the mouse is rendered.
