is this need to serialize and de-serialize also ?

if I want to access above initiated property in another place, how to get it ?


var allNodes = diagram.Nodes;

foreach (var item in allNodes)
{
// Get the new property Value
string Type = item.Tag.Type;
}

With your proposed approach I can see Tag Properties and its values come to code level, then How to bind this Tag Properties to show on XML tag ?

I tried following

binding from code level like this

listNodes.ItemsSource = diagram.Nodes;

then In XML file showing above properties like this

<ListBox Name="listNodes" local:GridControl.Row="0" local:GridControl.Column="0">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Text}" />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Brush}" />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Type}" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>

but this is not showing 'Type' on frontend, how to show it ?
