Users of my application are going to create some fairly large process flows. Although they can make use of zoom and pan functionality, this is not going to be great for them. What they would like to be able to do is to define "stages" of the whole flow. So in a workflow there might be 10 stages each of which have 10-20 steps. At "design time" (still end user design time), it makes sense to have one big flow with the 100-200 steps on it, but at "runtime" I need to be able to present the initial 10 stages (a stage being a FlowDiagramNode with other FlowDiagramNodes connected to it recursively) which the user can then drill down into the individual steps for that stage. Do you have any ideas about how I could take the whole serialized diagram and display only parts of that diagram?

Hello David This may require you to do a bit of experimentation here. At the moment WPF Flow Diagrams doesn't come with this feature you have described here, but you should be able to do a few things to build it up. Some things that you may find useful are: Let me know if this helps or not and if you need further details. - Jason |

Thanks for this. I will experiment with the idea of the Stage node having a diagram model and using the expander style idea. My one reservation about this approach is that it will not allow me to see the whole flow at "design time"... I will have a play and let you know how I get on. |
