For professionals who are building diagram-based user interfaces for Microsoft.NET: Northwoods Software, the first company to provide diagramming components for Microsoft.NET, announces the availability of GoDiagram 2.5, a newly updated version of its popular diagramming software for developers. Applications using GoDiagram allow users to clearly see and better understand data, and quickly manipulate data by interacting directly with the diagrams. GoDiagram provides the controls developers need to easily build applications incorporating interactive diagrams, such as flowcharts, state diagrams, networks, software design tools, workflow editors, and other graphical displays. GoDiagram 2.5 makes it even easier for developers to add expressive, interactive diagrams to their applications so that relationships within data become clear. "GoDiagram gives our Micro Saint Sharp simulation software the ultimate flexibility in creating process model diagrams and flow charts. Using this component allows us to spend our software development dollars in enhancing our software as opposed to developing and maintaining our own diagramming tool," according to Go Diagram customer Beth Plott, of Alion Science and Technology MA&D Operation. Version 2.5 of GoDiagram, for .NET, improves on GoDiagram 2.4 by adding several features important to developers. New features include improved support for AJAX-style web applications and automatic layout for tree structures. Other new features include numerous new sample applications and examples. GoDiagram 2.5 adds to the existing features and versatility of GoDiagram making it a better more complete product. For more information on Northwoods GoDiagram: its Web site.
