Examples

The following example shows how to create a custom CompositeDesignerTheme by deriving from the CompositeDesignerTheme class and setting the appropriate properties for the new theme.

public class ParallelIfTheme : CompositeDesignerTheme
{
    public ParallelIfTheme(WorkflowTheme theme)
        : base(theme)
    {
        this.ShowDropShadow = true;
        this.ConnectorStartCap = LineAnchor.None;
        this.ConnectorEndCap = LineAnchor.None;
        this.BorderStyle = DashStyle.Dash;
        this.WatermarkImagePath = @"parallelIfWatermark.png";
        this.WatermarkAlignment = DesignerContentAlignment.Fill;
    }
}
Public Class ParallelIfTheme
    Inherits CompositeDesignerTheme

    Public Sub New(ByVal theme As WorkflowTheme)
        MyBase.new(theme)

        Me.ShowDropShadow = True
        Me.ConnectorStartCap = LineAnchor.None
        Me.ConnectorEndCap = LineAnchor.None
        Me.BorderStyle = DashStyle.Dash
        Me.WatermarkImagePath = "parallelIfWatermark.png"
        Me.WatermarkAlignment = DesignerContentAlignment.Fill
    End Sub
End Class

To use the theme on a CompositeActivityDesigner, apply the ActivityDesignerThemeAttribute to the CompositeActivityDesigner class.

[ActivityDesignerTheme(typeof(ParallelIfTheme))]
public class ParallelIfDesigner : ParallelActivityDesigner
<ActivityDesignerTheme(GetType(ParallelIfTheme))> _
Public Class ParallelIfDesigner
    Inherits ParallelActivityDesigner
