Hallo,
I am evaluating your software to see if it matches our requirements and I must say, I am quite impressed. Two things are left I need to know:

We want that the user can create some kind of floor plans with the canvas and save it into a special interchange format based on XML. I allready created symbol libraries and saved them in a nxl file. If I create now a diagram with these symbols I have two problems:

1. How can I add a shape into the canvas? I tried nDrawingDocument.Add(myShape) but there is no Add Method.

2. How do I know which symbols the usere added to a canvas? I would like to attach a data container to the shapes class tag property before it is added to the canvas but first I need to know which type of symbol is added (is it a car, a tree or a dog?). I thought I can evaluate it by name but the name of my "Switch" symbole is allways "composite shape".

Thank you for your help.
