Basic elements and attributes

Element Description Attributes Children
diagram Root Element sheet
sheet Sheet
  • name ( Sheet Name )
 group, polygon, text, line, image
group Group Shape
  • attr-stencil-id ( Stencil ID )
  • attr-xxxxx ( Attribute )
 group, polygon, text, line, image
polygon Polygon Shape

image Image Shape
  • source-id ( Use when you get this image. See Inserted Image API. )

“Stencil ID” is used to distinguish stencils within the diagram. No ID’s are set for the stencils added into your diagram before MM/DD/YY. To get this ID, drag & drop the stencils from the Stencil panel again. Please note that the ID will be deleted when the stencil is ungrouped. “Attribute” is the value which was set on the right most tab of the Inspector panel. You can set any value here and get it using this API.
