Hi Stoyan ,

I have mailed the images regarding this on support mail ID.

Currently we are using node in "Figure1" format. Now we want format in "Figure2" format.

We are using following code for getting "Figure1" format.

textOnTheRight = new MindFusion.Diagramming.Wpf.Shape(
                Shapes.Rectangle.Outline,// reuse the rectangular shape
                null,// no decorations
                new ElementTemplate[]// define text region
                   {
                       new LineTemplate(25, 19, 90, 19),
                       new LineTemplate(90,19, 90, 79),
                       new LineTemplate(90, 79, 25, 80),
                       new LineTemplate(25, 79, 25, 19)
                   },
                    FillRule.EvenOdd,// doesn't matter here
                    "TextOnTheRight"// to access the shape later using Shape.FromId
                );

We want to access the "Target Region" Directly , so that we can set "target regions" background explicitaly.

Please suggest modified code for this.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Stoyan,

In our Shape(Figure1) there is a ImageRectangle to display images and a TextArea to show text. As you can see by Figure two we want a region between this ImageRectangle and TextArea, It could be another imageRectangle or TextArea itself if possible.

We want to fill some forground color in this region that can be treated as foreground color of the ShapeNode.

1). Is it possible to have multiple TextArea/ImageRectangle in a single node?
2). If not, can we make a region like that so that this region can display some foreground color for that node?

Please suggest.

Hi Stoyan,

If I want to use TableNode instead of Shapenode to achieve this.
1)How much efforts will be required for change?
2)And what will be the effect on performance?

Hi Stoyan,

We already tried attached node , but we had performance issues related to that.

And other as you suggested.
"Deriving from ShapeNode and call DrawRectangle from the node.Draw override"

Could you please elaborate this?

Thanks and Regards,
Anshul.

Hi Stoyan,

I have tried this code to draw a rect but its not working.

void diagram_DrawNode(object sender, DrawNodeEventArgs e)
	  {
		ShapeNode node = e.Node as ShapeNode;
		if (node != null)
		{
		    e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(Brushes.Black, new Pen(Brushes.Gray, 2), new Rect(node.Bounds.X , node.Bounds.Y, node.Bounds.Width / 10, node.Bounds.Height));
		}
	  } 

Please correct me if I am doing anything wrong.

Anshul

Thanks Stoyan,

Can we change its foreground color(Brush) at runtime?

Regards,
Anshul

Thanks Stoyan.

However the event(diagram_DrawNode) is called every time we mouse over the node. We want it only to be called initially when nodes are created and when we call node.Repaint().

Please suggest on this.

Hi Stoyan,

We want to display an Image at LeftCenter of the node. It should be placed such that half image should be inside the node and half image should be outside the node.

We have tried following code to acheive this.

e.Graphics.DrawImage(img, new Rect(-6,6,18,18 ));

By this, we are getting image at LeftCenter but only half image is displaying inside the node(right portion of the image), it is getting cut by the node border.

Please suggest how we can get full image at LeftCenter(half inside the node, half outside the node).

Anshul
