Programmatically adding a label to a Symbol

[James Sifuentes]

Hello,
I am evaluating the product, and I would like to add a symbol, a Ellipse for instance, and show on it a Label.
How I could Achieve this? I see on the Diagram Builder Sample, that when you add a Ellipse, you are able to set on it a Collection of Labels, but this Collection is not available from code.

Sample code:

Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Diagram.Ellipse item = new Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Diagram.Ellipse();
Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Diagram.Label label1 = new Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Diagram.Label();
item.Bounds = new System.Drawing.RectangleF(50, 50, 100, 100);
/*
This would be an easy way...
item.Labels.Add(new Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Label("My Ellipse Title");
*/
this.diagram1.Model.AppendChild(item);

Thanks,
James

Hello James,

Thanks for the code snippet. We have a SymbolLabel class which intend to add label to the SymbolNode using AddLabel()method.kindly, refer the Evaluation center articles which would help you to programmatically add a label to the SymbolNode.

Also, we have various samples featured with adding labels to the SymbolNodes programmatically. A list of them are,

1. SymbolFactory and IshikawaDiagram Diagram Samples which demonstrates about labeling the SymbolNode using the SymbolLabel class.
2. SimpleFlow and DynamicSymbol sample explains about labeling the SymbolNode using the Label class.

how to add label to Bitmapnode programmatically

[Meera Fathima]

Hello Prachi,

I am sorry about this delay in responding.

Regarding your query, if your intension is to add label to a bitmapnode, you can do this by customizing the BitmapNode class and adding labels property into it. Also you need to override RenderContiguousData() method within the custom bitmapnode class which is used to render labels on bitmap nodes.

Please refer the forum post - http://www.syncfusion.com/support/Forums/message.aspx?&MessageID=61245 to get more details about how to go about with this and let me know if you have any more queries regarding this.

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion products.

Best Regards,
