Updates in this release

Updates in V3.1.1

Support for custom arrowheads

The type of the HeadShape, BaseShape and IntermediateShape properties of DiagramLink has been changed from enum ArrowHead to class Shape, which is also used to define ShapeNode shapes. The ArrowHeads class now exposes Shape definitions that correspond to the ArrowHead enumeration members from previous versions. It is also possible to assign any Shapes member or a custom shape as an arrowhead. When used for arrowheads, position (50, 0) in the shape definition corresponds to the arrowhead's tip point.

Additional arrowhead enhancements

• Now IntermediateShape arrowheads are also rendered for Bezier links.
• Different arrowhead shapes can be filled with distinct brushes as set through HeadBrush, BaseBrush and IntermediateBrush.
• Arrowheads can be custom drawn at arbitrary locations through the DrawArrowhead method.
• Support for intermediate arrowheads added to DxfExporter.

Miscellaneous Updates

• The ShapeDesigner tool now supports filled decoration objects (used in BPMN shapes).
• ShapeDesigner now allows drawing the shape's text region outside the shape outline.
• A new LoadFromXml overloaded method allows loading diagram items without changing the diagram's properties.
• UBendMaxLen property has been added to the QuickRouter.
• Now includes Printing and clipboard support in Silverlight mode
• The Toolbox Installer tool can be used to automatically add the NetDiagram components to a tab in the Visual Studio toolbox.
• Shadows can be painted using any brush type and not only in solid color.
