visjs support edit edge callback both editWithoutDrag and editWithDrag in one instance? #366

This was posted by someone else at another github location. https://github.com/almende/vis/issues/4266

I have the same issue that I can't seem to use editWithoutDrag and still be able to drag the to/from endpoints on the GUI. Is this possible? I've scoured the documentation and nowhere does it show a way to do both together. Thanks!

Hi @lmaklmak,

I don't know how you imagine this to work. You want to skip reconnecting and not skip it at the same time? Could you provide a use case illustrating this, please?

Thanks.

Hi Thomaash,

When I click on the edge, I have a popup allowing the user to customize an edge property. However, the user also needs to be able to drag the to/from endpoints. So when I hit save on the popup, any property or to/from changes are saved. If they hit cancel, all goes back to the way it was.

Thanks for the prompt reply! Lisa

But isn't that exactly how the standard editEdge works? See https://jsfiddle.net/p5jcm2x8/.

PS: Ignore the clutter and irrelevant text around I just tweaked one of the examples.

lmaklmak commented 4 years ago

We want users to be able to see the pop-up without having to drag a to/from point first. They won't always need to change to/from, but will often need to modify edge properties.

And are you using the manipulation GUI or something custom?

lmaklmak commented 4 years ago

Yes, we're using the manipulation GUI.
