MindFusion.Diagramming for Silverlight has just been released. The control adds
new options for some of its automatic layouts, a completely new layout algorithm
and some new appearance properties. More details follow:
|
|
CompositeLayout algorithm
|
|
This release gives you a powerful tool to arrange quickly large diagrams. The
CompositeLayout divides the graph into subgraphs and applies the chosen layout
algorithm at each part saving time and resources. The SubgraphLayout property sets
the algorithm applies to the parts, while MasterLayout sets the algorithm used for partitioning of the graph.

Orthogonal layout |
Layout improvements
The OrthogonalLayout produces more compact layouts with less link bends if
MinimizeLinkBends is enabled.
The SpringLayout handles better large nodes and nodes with non-uniform size. The SpringLayout energy model has been changed to one that leads to better symetry in arranged graphs. The old model is recommended when using round links. It is accessible by setting LayoutMethod to Classic. |

Miscellaneous new features.
