Hi As with Juergen, I don't have much insight into the code, but the principle sounds great to me and it would be nice to be able to interactively place the diagrams as you have done with labels. How would the diagram's placement be persisted? In the same way as labels using a specified columns? Some users have requested that label placement could work like E$RI where the labels can be turned into graphics and placement is stored in the project file (or whatever the ESRI equivalent of that is) - so that you don't need to have write access to the dataset.
Anyway +1 from me, I look forward to your improvements! Regards Tim On Tue, Feb 15, 2011 at 2:16 PM, Jürgen E. <j...@norbit.de> wrote: > Hi Marco, > > On Tue, 15.
