DiagramControl.AllowMoveItems Property

Gets or sets whether to allow the end-user to move diagram items by dragging with the mouse or pressing the arrow keys. This is a dependency property.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Diagram

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Diagram.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.Diagram

#Declaration

public bool? AllowMoveItems { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Description
Nullable<Boolean>

true to allow the end-user to move diagram items by dragging with the mouse or pressing the arrow keys; otherwise, false.

#Remarks

Setting the AllowMoveItems property to false doesn’t prevent the end-user from changing the item coordinates in the Properties Panel.

You can restrict end-user operations by setting the DiagramControl.IsReadOnly property to true. Setting the desired diagram protection options (listed in the DiagramControl.IsReadOnly property’s description) to true overrides the IsReadOnly property.
