It allows you to harness the full power of WPF styles and templating, which makes adding flow diagrams to your application easy.

The WPF Flow Diagrams control also provides extensive extensibility points to customize almost every aspect - look and feel, node types, snap logic, export image formats and much more

Features

• Native WPF control
  Use Windows Presentation Foundation visual effects such as styling, composition and animation to incorporate WPF Flow Diagrams into visually compelling user experiences. WPF Flow Diagrams also support WPF data binding.
• Fully interactive mode
  Allow users to add, edit and delete elements of their flow diagrams. Drag and drop elements from the toolbox, or add custom handling. If interactivity is not required, read-only mode makes the flow diagram static.
• Snapping support
  The diagram surface can be configured to snap elements to guidelines if desired. Developers can customize the snap intervals or write their own snapping algorithm if desired. Snap lines can be shown as dots or lines, or with a custom display.
• Fully customizable
  Nearly all points of the WPF Flow Diagram support extensibility - add new element types, custom connectors, custom path finding, custom background grids, custom image export - everything is at your disposal if you need it.
• Multiple zoom capabilities
  Support for zooming in different ways - application specified zoom, mouse wheel zooming, mouse wheel + ctrl zooming or size to fit the viewport zoom.
• Built in serialization and deserialization
  Saving and loading diagrams is easy with the FlowDiagramXmlSerializer - save out to XML, or load from XML.
• Export to PNG, JPEG or BMP
  Simple one line export of diagrams to PNG, JPEG or BMP formats. Additional formats can be plugged in easily as needed.
• Printing
  Simple printing capabilities allow users to quickly print the flow diagram. Printing uses XPS format (WPF FixedDocument) which also makes it easy to add print preview and other such features.
• Simple, royalty-free redistribution
  You can freely redistribute the WPF Flow Diagram control with your application - no need for runtime licenses. The grid ships as two DLL files and supports xcopy installation - no special installation steps are required.
