We are starting beta tests of WpfDiagram 2.8.2. It includes the following client-requested features and fixes:

Rotation improvements
~ Attached nodes can rotate together with their master node if the group's FollowMasterRotation property is set to RotateChildren.
~ The Text of a ShapeNode can be rotated independently from the node by setting the TextRotationAngle property.
~ Fixed a bug where links did not follow the rotation of their target TreeViewNode.
~ The scroll buttons shown in the caption bar of a TableNode can now be used when the table is rotated.

Miscellaneous
~ The SaveToXml method now saves the definition of a custom Shape if a node's Shape has not any Id specified.
~ If NegatedY is set, the vertical Ruler scale displays negated Y coordinates.
~ The Ruler control scales now start from the origin of the diagram's Bounds instead of (0,0).
~ Fixed a bug where GroupAnchorStyles attachments did not preserve the correct distance for some values.
~ The TextBox control used for in-place editing now wraps text to multiple lines by default.
~ The Diagram control can be automatically added to the Visual Studio toolbox by the installer.

If anyone is interested in trying the beta version, please download the updated MSI installer below. The setup also includes a new SequenceDiagram sample project, which demonstrates the TextRotationAngle property and some event handling.
