JavaScript Diagram Editor - GitHub Pages

mxGraph JavaScript

Installation

The examples can be edited with any texteditor. To run the examples point your browser directly to the local files (use links below) or use a webserver to deliver the files. Note that the files should always be delivered via a webserver in production. Local usage of files is only recommended for development and testing. (Please read this for running examples from the local filesystem in Internet Explorer.)

• Indicators - Using small subshapes (indicators) inside a parent shape, typically an mxLabel.
• JQuery - Using a JQuery plugin to generate labels for vertices on the fly.
• JSON data - Using JSON to encode/decode parts of the graph model in mxCodec.
• Label Position - Using the label position styles to set the position of vertex labels.
• Labels - Wrapping and clipping for HTML labels of vertices, truncating labels to fit the size of a vertex, and manually placing vertex labels and relative children that act as "sublabels".
