Mvvm on manual layout wpf diagram

[Yana]

I would like to implement mvvm(model view view-model) on manual layeout diagram.
If I have a class called "NodeContent" which has image ,label ,offsetX and OffsetY and I hold a list of "NodeContent" in observableCollection that I want to bind to the diagram as a list of nodes(and also bind the location of each node offsetx and offsetY according to the observableCollection which hold my class "NodeContent" , how can I bind it to the diagram? ( each node has a datatemplate of an image and a label).

I would like to create a diagram of nodes , but not automatic layout ( I already examined the tree layeout object data binding examples ,but it does not work for manual layout,because it has hierarchyDataTemplate which not match the manual layout diagram).

I also want to create connections between nodes , also in mvvm model. is it possible ?

Hi Yana,

With regards to Manual Layout in Essential Diagram, currently we have support to specifying only the Collection of Nodes in ItemSource property but not for LineConnectors. When a Hierarchical data with HierarchicalDataTemplate is used, a Parent node will be connected to its children using LineConnector, which is presented in Business Object Databinding sample. We have considered your requirement as a feature request and We will implement this in any of our future releases.

If you would like us to notify about the feature implementation then, you may create a Direct-Trac using our Direct-Trac Support system.

Please let us know if you have any further concerns
