Dynamic, auto-layout diagram in Webforms

[Sebastien Boulanger]

Hi,

Is it possible with Essential Diagram to dynamicaly create, in a .NET Webforms application a diagram (like an organisation diagram), with data from a database, that will auto-layout (balance) itself and that each "box" of the diagram is a weblink to another URL?

Thanks, I REALLY need that... :)

Hi Sebastien,

Yes, everything that you listed can be done using the 3.2 version Essential Diagram. In fact, this new version of the product features an ''OrgLayout'' ASP.NET sample that demonstrates creating an organization chart diagram based on employee data sourced from an Access database, and lays out the nodes using a diagram layout manager. As for having nodes function as a hyperlink, this is also possible, and is shown in the ''ScriptyClient'' sample.

If you have a valid subscription to Essential Diagram, please download and install the latest 3.2 build, and refer to the above mentioned sample. However, if you are trying out the evaluation version, our current eval is based on the older 3.0 codebase, and does not feature these new samples. We will have a new eval based on the 3.2 version of the product within a weeks'' time. But if you require this right away, I would suggest that you talk/email our sales staff, and they might be able to help you out.
