Description
The yFiles.NET (evaluation) package contains the following documentation as Visual Studio integrated help items:
- yFiles.NET Class Reference
- yFiles.NET Developer's Guide
- yFiles.NET Demos
The Class Reference gives an overview on the yFiles.NET API and enables convenient navigation to all classes and interfaces and their methods and properties. The Developer's Guide presents the concepts of the yFiles.NET library and explains how to use the API's functionality. Lastly, the Demos are a collection of C# source code examples which are also available as readily usable Visual Studio projects.
Provided that the standard installation for the yFiles.NET (evaluation) package has been used (i.e., the documentation has not been excluded in the first place), these items are available in Visual Studio when the help contents are opened using the Help >> Contents menu entry.
All of the above items (and even more) can also be seen as entries in the Windows Start Menu for the yFiles.NET installation:
The aforementioned C# projects are located in the 'demos' directory in the yfiles.NET installation directory. Also in the 'demos' directory is a Visual Studio solution file that contains all projects. This solution file is also accessible from the Start Menu.
