I am using the draw2d library and implemented quite a lot of stuff already. I used one of samples to get started and was testing and playing with my implementation on a separate HTML page.
It was time to integrate client-side part with the server. I haven't expected any problems.
So I just put all the stuff on a real page, implemented some C# code.
But after I started to play with my diagram I could not get context menu or double click on the connectors, I could not connect two figures...
Well, actually I could, but the connectors were at incorrect location of the screen and it looked like it is "shifted"...
See the problem now?
The problem is that a paint area should always start at top left absolute position. What a horrible discovery.
I spent lots of my time for this stuff and now it seems to be unacceptable.
The solution I found should solve the problem, BUT (as always, there's a but) I should use NO NAMESPACE version of this library. I don't really like it because of 2 reasons:
- I have to rewrite lots of code.
- It's much more error prone and might conflict with other JavaScript implementation.
But I don't see any choice for now. I have to start removing all the namespaces I used so carefully...
