Application shapeadd event

[Florin Capra]

Hello,

Related this event I have a little problem. I would like that this event
to fire only when I drag a shape from stencil to the page.

But I have a function where I add shapes to the page and in this page at
begin I subtracted the event and after I finished the function I add
again the event. My problem that encounter is that the event is fired.
How could I cancel this event for shapes that are not dragged on the
page and are added using Drop function, if is possible ?

Many thanks !

Regards

check out the latest visio sdk. In the examples for event handlers it shows
how to differentiate what type of shape drop event you're playing with.

Instead of adding and removing the event from an eventlist, just set a
boolean flag when you are about to programmatically drop shapes. When the
ShapeAdded event fires, check the flag to see if you should ignore the event
or not. Then clear the flag when you are done dropping shapes.
