Good evening all

I am using the pdfexporter to produce some great looking diagrams. I have had a look at the forum and could not find if someone has created some code (vb.net) to imbed a diagram header/title and footer block that prints with the diagram or is there a feature in FlowChart.net that provides this functionality that I have not spotted?

regards
Doug

Good evening,

There's no built-in support, but you might handle the DrawBackground event and draw the header from the handler. DrawBackground should be raised once for each page, and one of its arguments should be the rectangle of the current page, so you might align the header to that rectangle.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan

Once again; thank you for the advice which I will try. As an alternative  I am looking at placing a fixed node at the top left of my diagram that contains the information that I want to print (at least on the first page). Finaly for other readers benefit, exporting the diagram to Microsoft's Visio is another option where you can add page background borders/headers/footers)

Regards
Doug
