Hi,
I was looking at your Network Sample -> Ready Diagram demo and was wondering how you get the text, such as Printer, Home, User, etc.,to display under the node (image)?

Many thanks,
JB

Hi,

In that case the labels are separate nodes attached to the icon nodes through the DiagramNode.AttachTo() method. They are also Transparent and Locked.

Another possibility is to define a custom shape whose text region is below the outline, i.e. the text area Y coordinates are > 100.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan

Hi Stoyan,
Thanks again for all your help, I truly appreciate it tremendously!!

My last question: How do I get the attached child node? E.g. If I make changes to my parent node the changes must also be reflected in the child node. I used childNode.AttachedTo(parentNode, AttachToNode.BottomLeft) to do the attaching.

Thanks,
Johan

Hi Johan,

Try with

if (someNode.SubordinateGroup != null)
{
     childNode = someNode.SubordinateGroup.AttachedNodes[0];
}

I hope that helps,
Stoyan
