Diagramming for WinForms V. 5.6.3 Released
 

Thursday May 19, 2011

For years MindFusion's Diagramming component for WinForms has been #1 choice of small companies and Fortune 500 enterprises worldwide. If you're new to using the control, it won't take you long to find out why developers love it - it is so easy to use it that you can start building fantastic flowcharts the moment you install it. It's fast, reliable and above all provides every single diagramming feature you might ever need. The new version contains features reqested by customers as well some performance improvements. Here are the new add-ons:

CompositeLayout algorithm

This new algorithm makes diagram arrangement really faster. It partitions the diagram into several subgraphs and applies the algorithm specified via the SubgraphLayout property on each part. This way the CompositeLayout is able to process a large graph much faster than if a layout algorithm is applied on the whole graph.

Scripting Sample

Learn how to associate scripts with flowchart nodes to design and run actual algorithms represented by the flowcharts. The new Scripting sample, available both in C# and VB.NET will teach you how to do it - fast and easy.

Miscellaneous new features.

- If you use the OrthogonalLayout and enable MinimizeLinkBends, your flowchart will look more compact.
- The DisableMirroring constraint prevents users from flipping a node by dragging a handle over the opposite node side.
