DiagramShape - text and image shape types are needed
hello,

RadDiagram is great for vector shapes, but it's more difficult to use plain text shapes, or custom bitmaps (.PNGs, .GIFs, etc). possible to do, but requires javascript manipulation. it would be more natural and more powerful for their to be native DiagramShape types for "Text" and "Bitmap", with appropriate auxillary properties to use them ("ImagePath", for Bitmap, etc...)


thanks
matt

Hi Matt,

We will try to implement an easier approach to creating image shapes. We intend to add a Source property for a Shape. Therefore to use it the Type of the shape should be Image and the Source property should be set to the URL of the image.

As for the text shape type could you, please, elaborate more on what specifics are missing there? Currently it is possible to add a shape with text content. Check the overview demo - http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/diagram/examples/overview/defaultcs.aspx, and especially the Yes and No labels that are positioned near the Connections.

Looking forward to your comments.

Regards,
Niko
