Hi,

You could run the ShapeDesigner, delete all shapes you don't need, and save the remaining ones to a shape library file. Then set the listbox.ShapeLibraryLocation property to the shape-library URL.

If you are using JavaApplet mode, you could indeed use the ShapeListBoxApplet API to set the shapes from JavaScript. Doing that from the server is not supported yet.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan

ShapeDesigner is a tool you can launch from the start menu for NetDiagram. It displays a list of all predefined shapes - you can select and delete the ones you don't need from that list.

You can't modify the ShapeListBox on the server side when in JavaApplet mode, so that won't work from VB.NET. You could do that from JavaScript, e.g. in response to the AppletStartedScript event:

var shapeListApplet = <%= shapeList.AppletElement %>;
var shapeList = shapeListApplet.getShapeListBox();
var scriptHelper = shapeListApplet.getScriptHelper();
var shape1 = scriptHelper.shapeFromId("Rectangle");
var shape2 = scriptHelper.shapeFromId("RoundRect");
shapeList.clearShapes();
shapeList.addShape(shape1);
shapeList.addShape(shape2);
 

I hope that helps,
Stoyan
