Problem conclusion

  • SA is currently working as designed. The action performed on
    the active diagram dictates what is done to the underlying
    data model. ANY action that changes how symbols are embedded
    will affect the underlying data model if rules have been set
    up in the property set.
    A diagram property has been added to allow this behavior to
    be turned off at the diagram level. Thus the workflow is to
    open diagram properties to check the status of the property,
    change it if necessary, press OK, then adjust symbol
    positioning. Of course if the diagram is saved then the
    property will be left in the last state it was set to.
    The property is on the Behavior tab and is called
    'Auto-populate implicit relationships on moving symbols'.
