Nevron Diagram for .NET - New Features in 2010 Vol.1 Release



Windows Forms Control Hosting

  • Windows Forms Control Hosting - Any Windows Forms control can now be integrated into the drawing document. Drawings that embed windows forms controls can be serialized. WinForm controls serialization is implemented as a design surface (very similar to the one that Visual Studio uses).


Localization Support

  • Localization Support - The diagram is now fully localizable. If you are interested in developing a localized diagramming solution ask us for a localization dictionary or take the time to localize the diagram by yourself, by translating the dictionary provided with Nevron .NET Vision.


Map Improvements

  • Support for value and range fill rules. This feature helps you colorize any map in a data driven fashion.

  • Support data binding to external tables. This feature helps you natively extend the information available for each ESRI shape, by attaching tabular data to maps.

  • No need for dBASE driver for reading dbf map data.


Diagram Layout Improvements

  • Performance improvements in the following layouts:
    - Layered Graph
    - Orthogonal Graph
    - Radial Graph
    - Single Cycle
    - Balloon Tree

  • Some layouts (for example the Orthogonal Graph Layout) can now take advantage of multicore CPUs to improve performance even more.

  • Force directed layouts now have a property MaxTime that determines the maximum time the layout is allowed to operate. When this time is exceeded the layout is interrupted and the results produced by the current iteration are used.


Miscellaneous Improvements

  • The TextureMapping layout of texture fill styles (Gradient, Advanced Gradient, Hatch and Image) is now honored by path primitives. In RelativeToViewer mode when you rotate shapes the texture will not rotate. In RelativeToObject mode when you rotate shapes textures will rotate too. Older versions rendered path primitives always with RelativeToViewer texture mapping (e.g. RelativeToObject was not supported).

  • The drawing preview manager has an option to suppress shape reconnection on shape move and drag and drop. When ReconnectOnMove is true the diagram will behave as it did before - reconnect the moved/drag-dropped shapes. When ReconnectOnMove is false the diagram will not break shape connections on move (1D shapes plugs and 2D shapes outward port connections).

  • The NMouseWheelScrollAndZoomTool has been redesigned to allow arbitrary configuration of whether zoom and/or scroll must be performed on normal or control keys modified mouse wheel.


Vector Image Export

  • Vector Image Export - The diagram can now be exported to the following additional vector image formats: PDF, SWF (Flash), XAML (Silverlight), EMF (Extended Metafile).


Flash Animations

  • Flash Animations - When exporting to Flash image format the diagram can now generate animated drawings. Animation options are implemented as a style attribute and are available for each shape.
