SwimlaneLayout Class

Implements an algorithm which arranges nodes in lanes.

Namespace: MindFusion.Diagramming.Wpf.Layout
Assembly: MindFusion.Diagramming.Wpf

 Syntax

C#

public class SwimlaneLayout : Layout

Visual Basic

Public Class SwimlaneLayout
    Inherits Layout

 Remarks

This layout algorithm can be used to arrange process diagrams in which nodes representing activities are placed in swimlanes representing resources. The index of the resource allocated to an activity should be assigned to the corresponding node's LayoutTraits[SwimlaneLayoutTraits.Lane].

By default, the algorithm works with the diagram's LaneGrid, but its SwimlaneGrid property can be set to any class that implements ISwimlaneGrid. This allows applying the layout to a custom-drawn grid rendered via a control template, or one composed of locked background nodes.
