Flowchart / schema canvas

Getting Started
1

Some time ago I asked if anyone knew of a flow chart canvas but at the time not much was available.

I was wondering if anyone had made any progress of a flow chart or schema type of canvas that would allow for information to be shown visually and also drawn on the canvas with linked nodes etc.

for the linked nodes, there is/was rbcomposer by alex restropo

Yeah that is exactly the sort of thing I am looking for but when I tried to implement it before I just couldn’t get it to compile and I don’t have enough knowledge to bring it up to the latest version of Xojo.

I forked it and updated it for Xojo 2019: https://github.com/Schneppi/RBComposer.git

I was in the same oat (my programming skills not being good enough for what I wanted to do) but the solution was obvious: take some time to improve your programming skills.

Just because we “want” something doesn’t mean we have a right to get it. Sometimes you have to earn it.

But if you don’t have the time to spend then you can always spend money (a kind of stored time) instead and buy a plugin or pay someone else to do it.

Hi Markus

Fully agree and I am trying to increase my skills but sadly dont have enough “paid” projects to work on so dont get a huge amount of time to work with Xojo. I often do buy plugins and would be more than happy to buy a plugin for this as well if I could find one and why I posted on hear to see if anyone knew of anything.

Thank you so much for doing this.
