MindFusion.Diagramming for Silverlight v. 2.3 has just been released. The new version adds new layout algorithm, new item properties and methods. Here are the details:
|
|
Automatic node alignment
If AutoAlignNodes property is enabled the node that is currently drawn or resized is aligned to another node so that a pair of their vertical or horizontal sides become collinear. The AutoAlignDistance property specifies the maximal distance at which nodes are aligned. The AlignmentGuidePen draws an alignment guide that indicates the pair of aligned nodes.

Fractal layout |
Fractal layout
FractalLayout is a tree layout algorithm that places child nodes symmetrically around their parent node. Nodes at the lowest level are arranged directly in a circle around their parent. At upper levels, the already arranged nodes form branches that are arranged in a circle around the new parent node. The algorithm is recursively repeated till the highest level is reached.
Attaching and grouping of items
DiagramLite allows attaching a node to another node, establishing a subordinate - master relationship between them. This can be done easily by calling the AttachTo method.
