Hello,

I have a problem with loading from xml custom nodes, for test purposes i use flowshart.xml which is in samples folder, what i do i just rename classes there into my own thats it.

Well it loads and displays correctly, except diagramlinks and node are not attached, if i try to move it, diagram links stays were whey were... i have custom nodes only with properties, nothing else...

What could be wrong?

Hi,

If using custom link types, you must also add origin and destination parameters to the constructor and pass them to base one. The control instantiates links like this when loading from XML or JSON -

var link = new type(this.diagram, origin, destination);

The help file lists them as optional, but seems they are required for serialization.

yes i am using custom links, i have defined that in .net classes and i have rewritten js prototype like this:
Code (Javascript)
Select All
myDiagramLink = function (parent, origin, destination) {
    myDiagramLink.initializeBase(this, [parent, [origin, [destination]]]);
}


i have no special logic of drawing, just couple of properties on the DiagramingLink, but right now not using them and they are empty tag's in XML

What else could it be?

You should pass the arguments as a flat array, same way you would call Function.apply -

Code
Select All
...initializeBase(this, [parent, origin, destination]);

Oh, that worked! I was following documentation in jsDiagramming component DiagraminkLink constructor is described like this:

Code (Javascript)
Select All
function DiagramLink ([parent, [origin, [destination]]])

I think that's more of a notation about arguments being optional, rather that an array of arrays. Although we established they are not that optional when you need to implement serialization in the custom class Undecided
