Switching between Modes

Drag-node charts can be rendered either in the edit mode - that allows you to add, edit, or delete nodes, connectors, and labels - or in the view mode - that allows you to only view the chart.

Given below is a brief description of the attribute used to switch modes for a drag-node chart:

Attribute Name Description
viewMode It is used to specify whether the chart will be rendered in the view mode or the edit mode. Setting this attribute to 1 will render the chart in the view mode, setting it to 0 (default) will show it in the edit mode. A settings button would appear at the bottom of the chart when the attribute is set to 0.

There! You have now seen how you can configure drag-node charts.
