Diagramming for Windows Forms, V6.3.1

Posted on by

MindFusion has just released a new version of its popular Diagramming for WinForms component. Here are details about the new features:

Improved arrowhead rendering
Arrowhead rendering has been improved as you can see in following new vs. old version image.

  • arrowheads are rendered as a single path when possible and several arrowhead Shape definitions has been changed to implement mitered joints when HeadPen is set to a thick pen.
  • the point where end segments connect to arrowheads can be specified via the Shape.LinkSegmentInset property. Shape definitions from the Arrowheads class set it to suitable default value. This allows using transparent or semi-transparent brushes without seeing the link line drawn behind arrowheads.
  • arrowhead shadows are no longer filled if the link’s EffectiveBrush is null or fully transparent.
