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
Hi,
Thanks for the features suggestions.
The next release (v11.1) is planned for the begging of April.
Some of the features are already implemented – selection, more intuitive zooming. We’ll try implementing and your other proposals.
Can you provide more info about:
I’m not sure I understand this correctly.
Sure....here is the scenario
I am using the MVVM pattern and am binding the xamOrgChart in my View to some hierarchy collection property in ViewModel. So, everytime I refresh the collection and raise the property changed event for refreshing, I get a new chart in my layout overlapping the existing chart still showing in the background.
Let me know if you need more detail.
As we have to make a decision now about using the control, can you let me know what features will be available for sure in the April release as we kindof need all the features.
Thanks
Kiran
