Take Your WPF Apps Cross-Platform: Virtual Keyboard & Avalonia XPF
We are thrilled to announce a significant update for developers using our Virtual Keyboard for WPF: it is now fully compatible with Avalonia XPF! This development bridges the gap between your existing WPF applications and the world of cross-platform development, allowing you to reach a wider audience without rebuilding your UI.
Find descendant nodes in MindFusion diagrams
This post demonstrates MindFusion.Diagramming API functionality that let you traverse connected diagram elements (following incident edges and adjacent nodes in graph-theory terminology). A diagram is treated as directed graph, where each node exposes incomingLinks and outgoingLinks collection properties, and respectively each link exposes origin and destination node properties. Thus the classic breadth-first search algorithm can be implemented like this for a diagram, with the callback parameter being invoked for each node, also reporting visit order and distance from initial node (as in length of shortest path in the graph):
Custom diagram canvas pagination
In this post we’ll show how to implement Visio-like dynamic pagination of the diagram canvas, expanding or shrinking it while users draw nodes interactively, and rendering custom page borders. This is demonstrated using MindFusion Windows Forms Diagram control, but equivalent APIs are provided by MindFusion diagramming libraries for other platforms.

We are soon releasing Avalonia version of our Virtual Keyboard control. It synthesizes keyboard events through Avalonia event routing system, so it should work on any platform supported by Avalonia UI. Unlike MindFusion Windows keyboard controls, events can be sent only to input controls in current process, and not to external processes.
In addition, language support cannot be generated automatically via OS APIs as in Windows controls, but we’ll be creating character maps for each language. Currently supported cultures that can be assigned to VirtualKeyboard.InputLocale property are en-US, fr-FR, de-DE and nl-NL.
