Indicates whether the Dirty flag should be cleared.
A string containing the encoded diagram data.
The Base16 and Base64 formats represent the data returned by SaveToStream as an ASCII string. There are no special characters in the returned string, so the result can be easily stored in a database field or embedded into an XML document. That might be used also for transferring a diagram between a web page with embedded MindFusion.Diagramming and a web server, passing the string as a value of a hidden HTML field.
When using Xml or CompressedXml as the first argument, the diagram is saved in XML format. The same format is supported by the SaveToXml and LoadFromXml methods. CompressedXml specifies that the XML document should be further compressed in ZIP format and base-64 encoded.
Exception type | Condition |

NotImplementedException | When saving the diagram using the CompressedXml flag under .NET Framework 1.1 or earlier. |
