ControlNode restore from XML

When I call diagram LoadFromXml() all ControlNodes do not show controls in them, only default colored shape with a word 'ControlNode'

However, I see that it shows tool-tips. I tried to invalidate layout of each control and even re-do diagram layout, but controls never show.

It seems that content of a control node is not saved at all.

Is there a way to do it?

Unfortunately there's no way to save the controls automatically in Silverlight, so you will have to do that yourself by handling the SerializeControl and DeserializeControl events. In the WPF version we use the XamlWriter and XamlReader classes for this, but they are not available in Silverlight yet.

I see that Silverlight 3 & 4 have XamlReader class:

Can it work with Silverlight 4?

Indeed Silverlight provides a Xaml reader, but not writer. I've just found this project, which you might try using in the SerializeControl handler:
