BiDirectional Diagram Data Binding

Hi Tom,
Thanks for evaluating Syncfusion products.

We have created a sample to represent BusinessObject data binding, In this sample the nodes can be dragged, drop new items, delete, link , unlink, but the Resize and Rotate of nodes is disabled. Also the business object collection can be edited using the menu items provided (Add and Remove), and the node collection will be updated accordingly.

We are not cleat with your query regarding, “I also need to preserve the user defined layout, so they are free to drag items around as they see fit”. Please send us more details on this query.

Please let us know if there are any concerns.

Hi,

I had successfully bind my custom class (in XAML) to the GridView and this is just one way direction. Thus, may i know is it possible that if i add a new Node in GridView via UI, then it will automatically add the Node to my binded ObservableCollection?

Hi, any idea to my previous question?

Hi Ehor,

We assume that your query is about binding DiagramModel’s Node collections to GridView and the DiagramModel’s Node collection changes also will update to the GridView. We have created a sample for this, in that sample we have added a every DiagramModel’s Node collection element to Observable Collection named”Nodes” and we have binded that “Nodes” ObservableCollection as ItemSource for ListView. GridView is a children of the ListView and we have shown some Node properties value from GridColumns. For more details please refer the sample from the following link :

If this sample does not suits your requirement please send us more details with some screenshots and sample representing your requirement. so that we can investigate more on your requirements.

Please let us know if you have any queries.
