In a previous post I showed a first Silverlight experimentation displaying a project plan in a Silverlight Gantt Chart control. Here is a second experimentation on the same topic. This small example also displays a project plan but this time the plan is displayed as a graph. If you have read the post I wrote about displaying a Microsoft Project XML file using WPF, you have an idea about the way this Silverlight sample is build since this is exactly the same idea. An experimental Silverlight Diagram control is used to represent the graph, where nodes are representing tasks and links are representing the predecessor constraints between tasks. The Diagram control automatically does the layout of the graph with a hierarchical layout algorithm that represents nicely the flow of tasks in the project plan.
