Diagramming for WinRT, V1.2

Posted on by

MindFusion has released a new version of Diagramming for WinRT control. Here is an overview of the new features:

License keys
MindFusion no longer provides separate trial and licensed versions of its components. Instead, you should set the LicenseKey property to disable the component’s evaluation mode and stop displaying trial messages. If your application has more than one Diagram instance or other controls by MindFusion, a single call to MindFusion.Licensing.LicenseManager.AddLicense(key) is enough to specify the key for all the controls. You can find your license key strings listed on the Keys & Downloads page at your http://clientsarea.eu account.

Improved arrowhead rendering

  • Arrowheads are rendered as a single path when possible and several arrowhead Shape definitions have been changed to implement mitered joints when HeadStrokeThickness is set to a bigger value.
  • You can now specify the point where end segments connect to arrowheads via the new LinkSegmentInset property of the Shape class.

Foldable containers
You can now set the Foldable property of a ContainerNode to let users fold and unfold containers by clicking up/down arrow in their caption bars. The Folded property lets you fold or unfold containers programmatically. Diagramming for WinRT control raises ContainerFolded and ContainerUnfolded events when users fold or unfold a container interactively.

Miscellaneous

  • You can set the the background of link labels with the Brush property of the LinkLabel class.
  • The Anchoring.Keep option is now honored by OrthogonalRouter.
  • The ChangeUnit method sets a new MeasureUnit and scales the coordinates of diagram items to keep them the same size.
  • Fixed node spacing in bottom-to-top TreeLayout.
  • The updateLinks parameter of SetBounds lets you specify whether link positions should change when setting node’s new position.
