Flowchart.NET on Linux w/ Mono

Hello,

Flowchart.NET looks like the perfect fit for an upcoming project, but I need to know one thing:

Will it run on Linux w/ Mono?

We need to be able to run cross-platform.

Thanks,

Rob

Hi,

It did not work well last time we tried a few years ago. We'll check it again tomorrow.

Hi,

It does not work well yet; the sample we tried printed "not implemented" warnings in the console about the Graphics.TransformPoints method, which the control uses a lot. We also tried our Silverlight control under Moonlight - it seemed to work fine at a first glance. If you have not decided on the platform yet, you might also check our Java/Swing component.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan

Hi Stoyo,

Thanks for trying it out! Is this on the latest Mono 2.8?

Cheers,

Rob

Hi Rob,

We tried it on the version included with the latest Suse Linux, I think Mono v2.6.4. We can check it on 2.8 next week.

Cheers,
Stoyan

Hi Rob,

Mono 2.8 does not work either. We managed to get most of it working with a custom TransformPoints implementation, though there are still some glitches when scrolling the diagram; we can try to find a work-around if you are still interested in using Mono.

Hy Stoyan,

Thanks very much for checking on that. We'll consider our options here, and I'll let you know what we decide to do.

Cheers,

Rob
