Hi.

Thanks

Hi,

That's not supported yet.

It seems that many things aren't supported yet with the regarding the Diagram and DiagramView3D. NodeClicked, LinkCreated and so on.  NodeSelected and ActiveItem works though. There is getNodeAt but no getLinkAt. I'd like to select individual nodes, moving and so on but nothing seems to work of the 'what-could-be-expected' stuff. When will there be a fully functional DiagramView3D. It could be that I have missed something very basic, not setting a property correct or something. Or???

Well, it works perfectly well as a read only view of the diagram in 3D, for what it was intended anyway. It is more of an experimental feature we added to see if there is any demand. Now that you and a couple of other people are taking interest in this, we'll consider extending it in the future.

We really would like some commitment from your side for the 3D features. We are considering diagramview2D, XNA or DirectX but with a proper roadmap the Diagramview3D is a far better choice than the other framworks.

Who needs DirectX when there's DiagramView3D, eh 8) Well, we are releasing v5.2 in a week, and have other plans for v5.2.1, so we could implement some more interactivity in 3D at some time in Spring 2009.

Please see to that basic diagram features is implemented. Selecting moving and so on. Eventhandling must also work of course.
One quite odd wish is implementing a cube and on click it rotates and exposes winform controls. Not that tricky to implement. Another (odd??) good feature is clusters, galaxys if grouped items seen as unit but when clicking the individual details are exposed.
Have you tested the diagramview3D with a large number of objects?

Basic features - yes. WinForms cubes and galaxies is a bit far-fetched for a flow diagramming component, don't you think Smiley For v5.2 we've added only link text rendering to DiagramView3D after a custom request:

How can I get the text property for a ShapeNode to always be aligned below the picture in a single line?

Is the relase for 5.2 comming this week?

Cluster is something we need, displaying a customers Configuration Model (ITIL-terminologi) with thousands of computers is not good, they need to be grouped in a nice fashion without loosing the bird-eyes-view. Thing of the molecule-example: from my perspective every molecule is a cluster of NetworkItems, the user can see the big picture of how the clusters are related, expanding a cluster will reveal the newworkitems in this cluster.

You could create a custom Shape definition where the image and text regions do not overlap.

Yes.

This should be pretty easy to implement on the application level; you could dynamically add child nodes when a cluster node is clicked or double-clicked for example.
