Hi Alex ,

Kindly accept our sincere apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

The LoadSOAP and SaveSOAP methods use the SOAP XML format to serialize diagrams to files and I / O streams. Please refer to the following code snippet

[C#]
//To save the diagram in Xml format.

this.diagram1.SaveSoap( string FileName);

//To load the diagram in Xml format.

this.diagram1.LoadSoap( string FileName);

I have attached the sample for your reference. In this sample when you click on File->save menuitem you can save the diagram in xml file. When you click on File->open menuitem you can load the diagram from the xml file.

Hi Alex ,

Kindly accept my sincere apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

If your intention is to write the label's text in Xml writter then please refer to the following code snippet.

[C#]

XmlTextWriter textWriter = new XmlTextWriter("..\\..\\myXmFile.xml", Encoding.Unicode);

            foreach (INode node in this.diagram.Model.Nodes)
            {
                if (node is RoundRect)
                {
                    RoundRect rect = node as RoundRect;

                    textWriter.WriteStartElement("Employees");

                    textWriter.WriteStartElement("Name");
                    textWriter.WriteString(rect.Labels[0].Text);
                    textWriter.WriteEndElement();

                    textWriter.WriteStartElement("EmployeeID");
                    textWriter.WriteString(rect.Labels[1].Text);
                    textWriter.WriteEndElement();

                    textWriter.WriteEndElement();

                }
            }
            textWriter.Close();
