MindFusion.Diagramming for WPF, V3.0.3

We have just released a new version of Diagramming for WPF. It contains the following new features and improvements:

Import of OpenOffice Draw files

You can use the new DrawImporter class to import *.odg files created by the OpenOffice Draw vector graphics editor. There are various downloads of the Import method, which can be used to import an OpenOffice drawing into a DiagramDocument, whose pages correspond to the Draw pages. You can also import your *.odg file into a single Diagram whose content is merged from all imported pages. Currently we support shapes from the General and Flowchart shape palettes in draw. Each shape or link is imported into a ShapeNode or DiagramLink object, whose appearance properties are set to match those of the imported shape/link as precisely as possible.

Display graphs in 3D

You can now display the elements of a diagram in the 3D space with the new DiagramView3D control. The control is very easy to use – just assign the Diagram to be displayed in 3D space to the Diagram property. DiagramView3D adds a 3D model to the scene for each node or link of the specified diagram. By default, nodes always face the camera, unless the NodeRotationType property is set to None.
