The width and height properties of the symbol palette allows to define the size of the symbol palette.

Add palettes to SymbolPalette

A palette allows to display a group of related symbols and it textually annotates the group with its header. A Palettes can be added as a collection of symbol groups.

The collection of predefined symbols can be added in palettes using the symbols property.

To initialize a palette, define a JSON object with the property ID that is unique ID is set to the palettes.

Customize the palette header

Palettes can be annotated with its header texts.

The title displayed as the header text of palette.

The expanded property of palette allows to expand/collapse its palette items.

The height property of palette sets the height of the symbol group.

The iconCss property sets the content of the symbol group.

The description defines the text to be displayed and how that is to be handled in getSymbolInfo.

Also, any HTML element into a palette header can be embedded by defining the getSymbolInfo property.

Restrict expansion of the palette panel

The symbol palette panel can be restricted from getting expanded. The cancel argument of the paletteExpanding property defines whether the palette’s panel should be expanded or collapsed. By default, the panel is expanded. This restriction can be done for each of the palettes in the symbol palette as desired. In the following code example the basic shapes palette is restricted from getting collapsed whereas the swimlane shapes palette can be expanded or collapsed.

        // GET: Nodes
        public ActionResult Nodes() {
            List<DiagramNode> SymbolPaletee = new List<DiagramNode>();

    }
}

Stretch the symbols into the palette

The fit property defines whether the symbol has to be fit inside the size, that is defined by the symbol palette. For example, when you resize the rectangle in the symbol, ratio of the rectangle size has to be maintained rather changing into square shape.

Add/Remove symbols to palette at runtime

  • Symbols can be added to palette at runtime by using public method, addPaletteItem.

  • Symbols can be removed from palette at runtime by using public method, removePaletteItem.

Customize the size of symbols

The size of the individual symbol can be customized. The symbolWidth and symbolHeight properties of node enables to define the size of the symbols.

Symbol preview

The symbol preview size of the palette items can be customized using symbolPreview. The width and height properties of SymbolPalette enables to define the preview size to all the symbol palette items. The offset of the dragging helper relative to the mouse cursor.

Adding symbol description for symbols in the palette

The diagram provides support to add symbol description below each symbol of a palette. This descriptive representation of each symbol will enhance the details of the symbol visually. The height and width of the symbol description can also be set individually.

  • The property getSymbolInfo can be used to add the symbol description at runtime.

Tooltip for symbols in symbol palette

The Symbol palette supports displaying tooltips when mouse hovers over the symbols. You can customize the tooltip for each symbol in the symbol palette.

Default tooltip for symbols

When hovering over symbols in the symbol palette, the default tooltip displays the symbol’s ID.
Refer to the image below for an illustration of the tooltip behavior in the symbol palette.

SymmbolPaletteTooltip

Custom tooltip for symbols

To customize the tooltips for symbols in the symbol palette, assign a custom tooltip to the ‘Tooltip’ content property of each symbol. Once you define the custom tooltip, enable the Tooltip constraints for each symbol, ensuring that the tooltips are displayed when users hover over them.

Here, the code provided below demonstrates how to define tooltip content to symbols within a symbol palette.

using Syncfusion.EJ2.Diagrams;
using System.Drawing;

            SymbolPaletee.Add(new FlowShapes() { Id = "Process", Shape = new { type = "Flow", shape = "Process" } });
            SymbolPaletee.Add(new FlowShapes() { Id = "Document", Shape = new { type = "Flow", shape = "Document" } });

            List<DiagramNode> BasicNodes = new List<DiagramNode>();
            BasicNodes.Add(new DiagramNode() { Id = "Rectangle", Shape = new DiagramBasicShape() { Type = Syncfusion.EJ2.Diagrams.Shapes.Basic, Shape = BasicShapes.Rectangle } });
            BasicNodes.Add(new DiagramNode() { Id = "Ellipse", Shape = new DiagramBasicShape() { Type = Syncfusion.EJ2.Diagrams.Shapes.Basic, Shape = BasicShapes.Ellipse },
            //To display customized tooltip content by enabling Tooltip Constraints
            Tooltip = new DiagramDiagramTooltip() { Content = "Customised Tooltip"},
            Constraints = NodeConstraints.Default | NodeConstraints.Tooltip });
            BasicNodes.Add(new DiagramNode() { Id = "Hexagon", Shape = new DiagramBasicShape() { Type = Syncfusion.EJ2.Diagrams.Shapes.Basic, Shape = BasicShapes.Hexagon } });
            ViewBag.BasicShapes = BasicNodes;

            List<SymbolPalettePalette> palettes = new List<SymbolPalettePalette>();
            palettes.Add(new SymbolPalettePalette() { Id = "flow", Expanded = true, Symbols = SymbolPaletee, IconCss = "e-ddb-icons e-basic", Title = "Flow Shapes" });
            palettes.Add(new SymbolPalettePalette() { Id = "basic", Expanded = true, Symbols = BasicNodes, IconCss = "e-ddb-icons e-flow", Title = "Basic Shapes" });
            ViewBag.palettes = palettes;

How to provide different tooltip for Symbol palette and diagram elements.

Differentiate the tooltips between symbols in the symbol palette and dropped nodes by utilizing the dragEnter event. When a custom tooltip is defined for a symbol, it will be displayed for both the symbol and the dropped node in the diagram canvas. However, to provide distinct tooltips for symbols in the palette and dropped nodes, capture the dragEnter event and assign specific tooltips dynamically.

When a symbol is dragged from the symbol palette and enters the diagram canvas, the [DragEnter] IDragEnterEventArgs event is triggered. Within this event, you can define a new tooltip for the dropped node. By assigning custom tooltip content to the Tooltip property of the node, you can provide a distinct tooltip that is specific to the dropped node.

The following image illustrates the differentiation of tooltips displayed in the Symbol Palette and the Diagram.

SymmbolPaletteCustomTooltip

The following code snippet will demonstrate how to define two different tooltip for symbol in the symbol palette and dropped node in the diagram canvas.

//Initialize the Diagram
 let diagram: Diagram = new Diagram({
            width: '100%', height: '500px',
            connectors: connectors, nodes: nodes,
            //event to change tooltip content while dragging symbols into Diagram
            dragEnter: dragEnter,
        });
 diagram.appendTo('#diagram');

function dragEnter(args:IDragEnterEventArgs)
    {
        //enable tooltip connstraints for the dragged symbol
        args.dragItem.constraints = NodeConstraints.Default | NodeConstraints.Tooltip;

        //change the tooltip content of the dragged symbol
        args.dragItem.tooltip.content='This is Diagram Tooltip';
    }

Palette interaction

Palette interaction notifies the element enter, leave, and dragging of the symbols into the diagram.

DragEnter

[DragEnter] IDragEnterEventArgs notifies, when the element enters into the diagram from symbol palette.

DragLeave

[DragLeave] IDragLeaveEventArgs notifies, when the element leaves from the diagram.

DragOver

[DragOver] IDragOverEventArgs notifies, when an element is dragged over another diagram element.

NOTE

The diagram provides support to cancel the drag and drop operation from the symbol palette to the diagram when the ESC key is pressed.
