To reproduce: - Add shape to the diagram. - Select the shape. - Press and hold Ctrl, then press one of the arrow keys. - The shape is not moved. Workaround: private void RadDiagram1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e) { // Ctrl should be pressed as well. if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Left) { var shape = radDiagram1.SelectedItem as RadDiagramShape; if (shape != null) { shape.Position = new Telerik.Windows.Diagrams.Core.Point(shape.Position.X - 10, shape.Position.Y); } } }
