July 12, 2010
Feature Release

DiagramLite provides applications targeting the Silverlight platform with the ability to create and display various kinds of diagram. It supports workflow, flowchart and process diagrams, object hierarchy and relationship charts, entity-relationship diagrams, structures like graphs and trees, etc. Every behavioral and appearance aspect of DiagramLite can be customized as best suits your project. Diagram objects can have different styles, colors, fonts and pictures. DiagramLite's programming model comprises more than 300 methods, properties and events. DiagramLite now supports Silverlight 4 and Visual Studio 2010. Source Code is available.

Updates in V1.7

  • Clipboard Support
    A single diagram item or a selection of items can be copied or cut to the Windows clipboard. This is done programmatically using the CopyToClipboard and CutToClipboard methods. To paste the clipboard contents into the current diagram, call PasteFromClipboard. Clipboard support was introduced with version 4 of Silverlight, so these methods are not available in the Silverlight 3 build of the control.
  • Node rotation
    Shape nodes can be rotated at an arbitrary angle. The RotationAngle property can be used to get or set the current rotation angle in code. Nodes can also be rotated interactively if the Rotate flag in EnabledHandles is set. That flag displays a round adjustment handle above the node which sets the rotation angle when dragged.
  • The expand/collapse button displayed beside Expandable nodes can be customized using the ExpandButtonTemplate property.
  • The AutoScroll property enabled automatic scrolling when the mouse is dragged near the diagram edges.
  • The TransformDiagramToItem and TransformItemToDiagram methods transform points between item's and diagram's coordinates.
