In this release:

Connectors​

  • We've "undeprecated" the usage of static connector type names, such as OrthogonalConnector.type. Where previously we'd deprecated these in favour of string constants (such as CONNECTOR_TYPE_ORTHOGONAL), we - and some licensees - have found that in some situations using the string constant causes a tree shaker to leave the connector code out. This was particularly prevalent in Angular apps. We recommend now using the static type names, even if you're not using Angular.

Adhoc Layouts​

  • The adHocLayout method of the Surface now clears the geometry of all the edges in the canvas, because edited edge paths are intrinsically linked to the position of their source and target vertices, and the adHocLayout method can arbitrarily move any vertex.

Angular integration​

  • We added optional data and url inputs to the jsplumb-surface component in the Angular integration. You can now do things like this in your templates:
<jsplumb-surface [toolkitParams]="toolkitParams"
    [renderParams]="renderParams"
    [view]="view"
    url="/assets/dataset.json"></jsplumb-surface>

or

<jsplumb-surface [toolkitParams]="toolkitParams"
                 [renderParams]="renderParams"
                 [view]="view"
                 [data]="data"></jsplumb-surface>

instead of having to declare a @ViewChild and load the data afterwards.
