We are planning to use the xamOrgChart in our Application and during the evaluation we identified the following features that we would like to see in the control.
1) Multi-selection of nodes.
2) Moving the nodes around (drag-drop) functionality.
3) More user-friendly xamZoombar (users confuse them with scroll bars) and flexibility to disabel the zoombar. Zoom functionality through Keyboard would be nice.
4) The chart control auto-fills the layout area by default. Is there a way to align and size it relatively. It would be nice to be able to specify the position and default zoom.
5) Refreshing the binding context object creates a new chart instead of reloading the currently bound chart.
I would really appreciate if you can let me know if you guys are releasing a version anytime soon and if any/some of the features will be available so that we can take a decision.
ThanksKiran
Could you teach me how to use this component with database???Tanks!!!
Hi,
The RTM version of the OrgChart is not released yet. The release is planned for the middle of May.
For now there is no special printing functionality planned, just the standard SL/WPF printing support. Can you provide more info of what would you want as a “quick print”?
Also would love a quick way to print the org chart.
Is the CTP over? Is that fix available now? I get an error when ever I call Onpropertychanged from my viewmodelbase.
Actually adding a new chart was an issue in the CTP. This is fixed already.
About the features that you’re asking – there will be available in the release version except the moving nodes around. But it will be possible to move (drag-drop) a node from one branch to another. We are creating such samples.
