We have released version 6.3 of FlowChart.NET. It adds the following new features and improvements:

Map nodes
The MapNode class represents nodes that can render geographical maps. At this time map nodes can display the content of Esri shapefile files. The content of a map file is represented by an instance of the MapContent class that should be assigned to the Content property of a MapNode. When the map comes with associated DBF database file, map regions can display labels if the labelField argument of FromFile is specified and DrawLabels is enabled. The color of a map region can be set via an integer index assigned to a map's Shape object, which identifies the element of FillColors that should be used to paint the shape.



Import diagrams from SVG
The SvgImporter class allows importing Scalable Vector Graphics files (*.svg) into MindFusion.Diagramming. Each top-level SVG group element is imported as a separate SvgNode, whose Content is set to the group's child elements. If the SVG file was exported from Visio or OpenOffice Draw, SvgImporter will create DiagramLink objects for groups it recognizes as connectors in order to recreate the original diagram model, though in this case it will not preserve fully the original appearance of connectors in SVG.

Visio2013Exporter improvements
~ Support for multi-segment links
~ Bezier links are now exported as NURBS lines
~ Support for rotated nodes
~ Proper scale for all MeasureUnit values
~ Support for semi-transparent colors

Miscellaneous
~ Set the AutoGrow property to false to prevent containers from resizing automatically when they would not fit newly added nodes.
~ The Brush property of LinkLabel class lets you set background color for link labels.
~ Now the NodeModified event is raised after the undo record for that modification has been added to the command history. This makes it easier to merge the ModifyItemCmd with custom commands created from NodeModified handler.
~ The ChangeUnit method sets a new MeasureUnit and rescales the coordinates of diagram items to keep them the same size.
~ OrthogonalLayout no longer ignores repeating links, and will now place them at a distance specified via RepeatingLinksPadding property.
~ Fixed a bug where the magnifier tool would not scale correctly the diagram's BackgroundImage.
