Updated the lasso plugin to remove a global reference to document and instead use a lazy init method

5.13.1

November 28th 2022

BREAKING

The getAllEdges method of the Group class no longer returns edges connected to child vertices of the group, instead behaving exactly as getAllEdges does on Node.

UPDATES

Group now has the method getInternalEdges, which returns edges connected to child vertices of the group.
Improvements to the placement stage of the Hierarchy layout when invert is set to true.
added support for gatherUnattachedRoots flag on the Hierarchy layout - see documentation for discussion.

5.12.6

November 9th 2022

Added support for Angular's OnPush change detection to node/group/port/overlay components.

5.12.3

October 27th 2022

Updates to community edition event generator to directly invoke event handlers instead of attempting to bind a context to them. This change is transparent to Toolkit users.
Update to Angular overlay to prevent an exception being thrown when the overlay is present on a connection that is being dragged (meaning that there is not yet an associated edge in the model)

5.12.2

October 12th 2022

Improvements to Arrow overlay rendering

5.12.1

October 7th 2022

updates to packaging for the background plugin

5.12.0

September 22nd 2022

BREAKING

In the generated grid background, showMinorLines is now showTickMarks, and minorLinesPerCell is now tickMarksPerCell.

UPDATES

Fix for an issue where the node:move:end event of the Surface did not contain all of the elements in the drag group.
Added support for dotted background in generated grid background, via gridType parameter ("dotted" or "lines"). Default is for lines.
Added dotRadius and tickDotRadius options to generated grid background, for use with GridTypes.dotted.

5.11.3

August 23rd 2022

Improvements to the documentation
Addition of setDraggable method to Surface, to set the draggable state of individual vertices.

5.11.2

August 18th 2022

Refactoring "simple edge styles" (color/line width) and edge labels. It is now possible to set an edge's color, line width, label (and its location) directly from the backing data for the edge.

5.11.1

August 18th 2022

Refactoring "simple edge styles" (color/line width)

5.11.0

August 17th 2022

UPDATES

Added code to catch and report circular references in view dependencies
Updated the view code to support multiple parents for a given node/group/edge/port definition
Added the concept of "simple edge styles" - automatically mapping a few key properties from each edge's backing data to the appearance of its corresponding connection in the UI. See documentation for more details.
Added the concept of a "property mapper", an alternative to the existing concept of edge styles, which maps specific property values in edge data to appearance. See documentation for more details.

5.10.9

August 16th 2022

BREAKING

the background plugin no longer assumes a type of "simple" by default: you have to always supply a type.

UPDATES

grid backgrounds now have defaults for fill/stroke written into the svg.
fixed issue with background plugin CSS stylesheet not being packaged.

5.10.8

August 16th 2022

Internal refactoring of background plugin to expose type members that can be used when configuring backgrounds in an ES6/TS development environment, to avoid the code being omitted through tree shaking.

5.10.7

August 15th 2022

Added support for generated grid backgrounds.

5.10.6

August 12th 2022

Fixed a couple of issues with edge placement in nested nodes/groups in the underlying community edition
Fixed an issue with the tiled background layer in the background plugin that was preventing it from rendering.
Reinstated the zoomToBackground method on the Surface widget
Added supportLegacyConnectorData flag to OrthogonalConnectorOptions. This offers a means for people migrating from 2.x to load datasets where there is path data for Orthogonal connectors in the 2.x format.

5.10.5

August 5th 2022

Update to the Angular component overlay code to fix an issue that occurred when an edge deletion was undone via undo().

5.10.4

August 3rd 2022

Added support to the Angular integration for using Angular components as overlays.

5.10.3

July 25th 2022

Minor internal refactoring. No functionality change.

5.10.2

July 22nd 2022

Minor internal refactoring. No functionality change.

5.10.1

July 21st 2022

UPDATES

Lasso plugin now updates the Toolkit's selection, rather than the Surface's drag selection, allowing the Surface to decide whether or not selected elements should be added to the drag selection.

5.10.0

July 21st 2022

UPDATES

The Surface widget no longer by default adds an element in the Toolkit's current selection to the underlying drag selection, instead maintaining a separate drag group for selected elements. What this means is that if you have a few elements selected and you drag one that is not selected, the selected elements will not also be dragged.

5.9.4

July 19th 2022

Upgraded to Typescript 4.x.

5.9.3

July 18th 2022

Packaging updates. No code change.

5.9.2

July 18th 2022

UPDATES

The surface widget now supports an instantiated Decorator in its decorators constructor parameter. This can be useful in situations where your code needs to work closely with the decorator's behaviour.
The args to the decorate method in a Decorator are now typed as DecorateParams (no changes, just the introduction of this type definition)
On a device that support touch events, the container element for a Surface is now assigned a jtk-surface-touch-device css class. The purpose of this is to allow you to style differently for touch devices, for instance by making visible elements that are only visible on hover on a device supporting pointer events.
On a device that supports pointer events, the container element for a Surface is now assigned a jtk-surface-pointer-device css class.

Note that

5.9.1

14 Juillet 2022

UPDATES

The constrainFunction that can be passed in the dragOptions to a Surface can now return null, indicating that for the given tick of the drag lifecycle there is no suitable place for the element and the element should not be moved from its previous position.

5.9.0

July 7th 2022

BREAKING

Backgrounds for the Surface element have been moved to a separate plugin - @jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui-plugin-background
In the underlying Community edition, endpoints are no longer wrapped in a div element; instead their svg element is appended directly to the container. This isn't a major change but may require some minor CSS updates.

UPDATES

The jtk-endpoint element has been updated to no longer require that a data-jtk-port attribute be set. This enables you to declaratively register multiple endpoints that are mapped to the vertex itself in the data model rather than on logical ports on the vertex.
The onCanvasDrop callback of DropManager is now passed the size of the dropped element, and also the related mouse event.
You can now pass a constrainFunction to the Surface's dragOptions, which will be invoked whenever an element is dragged, allowing you to control where elements can be dragged.
SurfaceDropManager and DropManager have received a few improvements:
- When dragging an element onto a Surface, the element being dragged will, by default, be scaled so that it appears at the same size as it will be when it is dropped (by matching the Surface's zoom). This behaviour can be switched off if desired.
- When the underlying Surface has a constrainFunction that controls where its elements can be dragged, by default this function will also be used to control element dragging when the new element is in the Surface's viewport. This behaviour can be switched off if desired
- You can pass an elementGenerator to SurfaceDropManager and DropManager, which is a function the Toolkit will use to get the element to drag, rather than cloning the drag element.

5.8.3

June 16th 2022

UPDATES

Updated React integration to fix an inconsistency in the way state was cleared after the data model is emptied via clear(). A warning was reported by React in the console.

5.8.2

June 15th 2022

UPDATES

fix for an issue in the node/group factories whereby a transaction could be left open if the user did not invoke either the continue or abort callback.

5.8.1

June 14th 2022

UPDATES

added support for 'id' attribute on SurfaceComponent in Svelte integration.
fixed an intermittent issue with updating templates in the templates-2 package: when an interpolated value was initially an empty string, the value could not be rewritten to boolean false.

5.8.0

June 9th 2022

BREAKING

Surface no longer fires EVENT_DATA_LOAD_END or EVENT_DATA_LOAD_START. It is unlikely these event subscriptions were in use, and they are a pass-through of the same event from the underlying Toolkit. If you want to listen for these events and you currently do so on the Surface, just bind to them on the Toolkit instead.
Drag groups have been extracted to a separate plugin

UPDATES

Surface now fires EVENT_RENDER_START and EVENT_RENDER_END at the beginning and end of the rendering of a set of data. EVENT_RENDER_END does not fire until every vertex in the dataset has been rendered (taking into account asynchronous rendering)
Updates to Vue 3 to better integrate with the asynchronous paint mechanism (in particular, when bulk loading and then running a layout)
Updates to React to better integrate with the asynchronous paint mechanism in React 18 (in particular, when bulk loading and then running a layout)
Added support for 'temmplate macros' to the @jsplumbtoolkit/templates-2 package. This brings templates-2 up to par with @jsplumbtoolkit/templates in terms of the complexity supported in injected values.

NEW PACKAGES

@jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui-plugin-drag-groups contains the code that lets you manage "drag groups". See https://docs.jsplumbtoolkit.com/toolkit/5.x/lib/plugins#drag-groups

5.7.1

June 1st 2022

UPDATES

Update to ForceDirected layout to better support positioning newly added nodes

5.7.0

June 1st 2022

UPDATES

Reinstated support for directRender mode, which has not been properly supported in 5.x as of yet.

NEW PACKAGES

added new ForceDirected layout. This is a rewrite of the original Spring layout, with several improvements and a shorter run time. Users of the Spring layout are recommended to switch to this layout from 5.7.0 onwards. Available in the package @jsplumbtoolkit/layout-force-directed.

5.6.5

May 24th 2022

UPDATES

Updates to the Spring layout to ensure that running the spring layout over and over on a given dataset wont move nodes whose position has already been calculated (regardless of whether the position was initially in the model or calculated by the layout). This also applies when a new node is added to the dataset - existing nodes will not be moved.

5.6.4

May 21st 2022

UPDATES

Added the related ComponentRef to the arguments passed to thevertexEvent callback exposed by the Surface element in Angular integration.

5.6.3

May 20th 2022

UPDATES

Added optional toolkitParams as an Input to the Surface element in Angular integration.

5.6.2

May 6th 2022

UPDATES

Updated miniview to render existing dataset if attached after Surface has initially rendered.
Updated Surface to write positions to model after relayout and refresh if the storePositionsInModel flag was set to true

5.6.1

May 5th 2022

BREAKING

interceptors support removed from the Surface object. This was undocumented and unused, and interceptors are supported by the Toolkit.
panDistance moved from SurfaceOptions to the PanButtonsPluginOptions interface in the pan buttons plugin.

UPDATES

Updates to packaging for evaluation versions
Update to the React integration to fix a rendering issue in React 18 when calling load with JS data during a componentDidMount or useEffect initialiser.

5.6.0

May 3rd 2022

BREAKING

@jsplumbtoolkit/dialogs has now been renamed to @jsplumbtoolkit/dialogs-core, and is a base package for two new packages - @jsplumbtoolkit/dialogs and @jsplumbtoolkit/dialogs-2. If you use @jsplumbtoolkit/dialogs currently, then dialogs-core will be automatically imported; the only thing you need to be aware of is that the dialogs CSS file is now in dialogs-core, and not in dialogs, so any references you have to that will need to be updated. dialogs-2 is discussed below.

NEW PACKAGES

- `@jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui-svelte`

This is an integration package to facilitate using the Toolkit with Svelte 3.  Docs are here: https://docs.jsplumbtoolkit.com/toolkit/5.x/lib/svelte-integration

- `@jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui-templates-2`

This is a rewrite of the default templates package (used by the `@jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui-vanilla` renderer, not by the Angular/React/Vue integrations) that addresses, primarily, the fact that in certain sandboxed environments (such as Salesforce Lightning), "strict" mode is enforced and so `eval` and `with` - both of which the original templates package uses internally - are not available.

Currently this package is still considered experimental, not having had the same battle testing that the original template package has had, but it has other advantages too, such as using `{{...}}` instead of `${...}` for variable substitution, making it play more nicely with template literals, and the speed with which an update occurs is vastly improved over the original templates package. We encourage licensees to give this new package a try and we invite all feedback.

Detailed information on the differences between this package and the original templates package, as well as instructions for how to use the package with your existing code, can be found here on our docs site: https://docs.jsplumbtoolkit.com/toolkit/5.x/lib/templating-2

- `@jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui-vanilla-2`

The vanilla Toolkit renderer, but using the new templates package instead of the original templates package. This is the renderer that we use now in all of our demonstration pages. For users of the current vanilla renderer we recommend switching to this package, as the original templates package (and therefore browser-ui-vanilla) is now in a lightweight maintenance mode, and is unlikely to be continued from v6.0.0 onwards.

- `@jsplumbtoolkit/dialogs-2`

This is a port of the original `dialogs` package that uses the `templates-2` package under the hood. Functionally there is no change from the original `dialogs` package, but the format of the templates you use with `dialogs-2` corresponds to the changes in `templates-2`.

UPDATES

Parameterised labels in views were updated to support {{value}} syntax as opposed to ${value}. This is to avoid confusion with JS string templates. The previous syntax is still supported for now but won't be as of v6.0.0.
The beforeConnect interceptor now takes an optional 4th argument which indicates whether the new edge is a result of user activity with a mouse/touch device, or if it is a programmatic edge addition.
Fixed an issue with the beforeDetach interceptor where in some cases the source and target parameters were empty (although they could be retrieved from the edge that is passed in to that interceptor anyway)

5.5.5

April 5th 2022

UPDATES

Fixed painting issue in orthogonal connector when a connection is established between endpoints on opposite faces of the same element.

5.5.4

April 5th 2022

UPDATES

Update Community edition's event manager module to not reference document in its root.

5.5.3

April 1st 2022

UPDATES

Optimising imports in both Toolkit and Community editions. No code change.

5.5.2

March 16th 2022

UPDATES

Fixed an issue preventing the magnetizer from running ad-hoc with the Spring layout.

5.5.1

March 12th 2022

NEW PACKAGES

New package @jsplumbtoolkit/layout-hierarchy added

This is a new layout that follows a slightly modified Sugiyama algorithm. Unlike the original Hierarchical layout, there is no assumption that any given node will have at most one parent, and consequently this layout typically performs much better on real world datasets than the Hierarchical layout. For more information - and future plans - see the Toolkit documentation.

5.5.0

March 10th 2022

BREAKING

Extracted "ui states" from the @jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui package and put them into a plugin in the package @jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui-plugin-ui-states. This shaves a bunch of Kb off the size of the browser-ui package. Details for how to migrate can be found in the documentation for UI States.
Several Surface render parameters related to how the mouse wheel is handled, which were marked deprecated in 5.3.0, have now been removed, or rather, moved and renamed:
- wheelZoomMetaKey -> wheel:{ useMetaKey:... }
- wheelReverse -> wheel:{ reverse:... }
- wheelSensitivity -> wheel:{ sensitivity:... }
- wheelFilter -> wheel:{ filter:... }
- wheelPan -> wheel:{ pan:... }
- enableWheelZoom -> wheel:{ zoom:... }

The default value for each of these parameters is still the same as in previous versions.

NEW PACKAGES

@jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui-plugin-ui-states, as discussed above.

5.4.1

February 15th 2022

BREAKING

removed getPosition(..) method from Surface. Use getCoordinates(..) instead.
removed setVertexPosition(..) method from Surface. It was a duplicate of setPosition(..)

NEW PACKAGES

Added new @jsplumbtoolkit/copy-paste and @jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui-copy-paste packages. See documentation for details.

UPDATES

Added activeMode optional constructor parameter for EdgePathEditor. When set, any new connection that has just been dragged will be marked "edited", meaning the geometry from the initial path is then fixed. This is a useful toggle if you're using an anchorPositionFinder in your code. See documentation for more details.
fixed possible geometry load issue with Orthogonal connectors in certain circumstances.
updated Orthogonal connector geometry load to allow usage with static (ie. not just Continuous or Dynamic) anchors.

5.4.0

February 10th 2022

BREAKING

Removed support for a templateRenderer declaration inside a node, group or port definition in a view. We know of no instances of this capability being used, and if it is needed, it can be handled inside a templateRenderer declared on the render params for a Surface.

UPDATES

Fix for potential recursive loop when elements in Balloon layout have connections to themselves.
Added support for anchorPositionFinder inside a node, group or port definition in a view. This provides a means for you to determine the anchor location for the source/target of some connection at drag time.
Added support for anchorPositionFinder to the connector editor package. Provides a means for you to determine where the source/target anchor of some connection can be dragged to when the connector is being edited.

5.3.11

February 6th 2022

UPDATES

Added checkValidity method to the dialogs package.
exposed extractValueFromElement method to get the value from a single element to the dialogs package.
Internal refactoring of the connector editors to standardise their drag behaviour with other parts of the Toolkit.

5.3.10

February 4th 2022

UPDATES

Added support to the dialogs extract and apply methods for a custom binder.

5.3.9

February 1st 2022

UPDATES

Refactored the dialogs internally to extract the DOM binding code for reuse in jsPlumb Toolkit Components.
Added optional autoCommit flag to the show method of Dialogs. By default this is true.

5.3.8

January 29th 2022

UPDATES

Updated the underlying community edition renderer to ensure that a user-provided anchor callback in a target selector is honoured.

5.3.7

January 27th 2022

UPDATES

Updated the drag handler in the underlying community edition renderer to ensure that a user-provided start callback cannot override the default drag start behaviour.

5.3.6

January 25th 2022

UPDATES

Updated the bindModelEvent and on methods of the Surface to handle multiple :not(..) selectors.
Fixed issue with wheelPan:true in pan/zoom widget not binding the wheel listener.
Updated setOverlaysVisible method of Surface to take an optional varargs list of overlay ids to operate on.

5.3.5

January 21st 2022

UPDATES

Fixed an issue whereby in some circumstances it was possible for a bindModelObject callback to be invoked without a model object supplied.
added setOverlaysVisible(Selection|Path|Edge|Array<Edge>, boolean) method to the Surface
updated the drop manager to support overridden left / top properties passed to the node factory callback.
added optional onVertexAdded callback to SurfaceDropManager, which will be invoked whenever a group/node has been dropped onto the canvas and added to the dataset.

5.3.4

January 12th 2022

UPDATES

Correction of the change in 5.3.3: jtk-source-hover and jtk-target-hover are applied to the elements involved in a connection, not the endpoints.

5.3.3

January 11th 2022

UPDATES

Reinstated the application of jtk-source-hover and jtk-target-hover classes to the source and target endpoint for some connection on which the mouse is hovering.

5.3.2

January 10th 2022

Fixed issue with endpoint hover: when hovering over an endpoint, endpoints at the other end of connections to that endpoint also hover.
Fixed intermittent issue with multiple definitions on an element that have Continuous anchor definitions with different faces.

5.3.1

December 20th 2021

UPDATES

added support for maxConnections in addTargetSelector method of Community edition.

5.3.0

December 15th 2021

UPDATES

Updated the exportData method to ensure that its output is insulated from the Toolkit's internal dataset
Updated to ensure the node:move:end event is fired after any necessary changes to the model.
Added toJson() to JsPlumbToolkit; you can now call JSON.stringify(someToolkitInstance) to get the same output you'd get from someToolkitInstance.exportData().

5.2.4

December 12th 2021

UPDATES

Fixed intermittent issue with not all edges being deleted when a group they are attached to is deleted.

5.2.3

December 7th 2021

UPDATES

Fixed issue with uniqueEndpoint on port definition not being honoured.

5.2.2

December 6th 2021

UPDATES

updated the tracePath method in @jsplumbtoolkit/browser-ui-anim to set a .jtk-animate-source class on the path source vertex and a .jtk-animate-target class on the path target vertex for the duration of the trace.
fixed issue with maxConnections on port definition not being honoured.

5.2.1

November 30th 2021

UPDATES

Added fix for a node/edge asynchronous rendering issue when using the data prop of the Vue3 surface.

5.2.0

November 28th 2021

UPDATES

Replaced Dictionary<T> throughout the codebase with Record<string, T>. Dictionary had been marked deprecated for a few versions.
Community edition updated to better handle anchor orientations with dynamic anchors.

5.1.2

November 26th 2021

UPDATES

Fixed issue with parsing of nested groups via the load function.

5.1.1

November 26th 2021

UPDATES

Small change to event registration for connection drag handlers. No functional change but this reduces any lag at the start of a drag.

5.1.0

November 25th 2021

UPDATES

compound is no longer an available flag on the undo/redo parameters passed to a Toolkit constructor. If an edge is deleted as part of a call to removeNode or removeGroup, its deletion is automatically wrapped in a transaction by the Toolkit. But if an edge is deleted independently of a vertex then it has its own undo/redo stack entry.
wheelFilter was reinstated.

5.0.0

October 29th 2021

5.x is a rewrite to Typescript, with a focus on modules. This work presented a rare opportunity to perform refactoring for clarity and performance purposes. As the list of changes grew, it was decided to move them out of the changelog and into a dedicated migration guide document.

In 5.x, the Toolkit and Community edition versions will be kept in step: Toolkit: version 5.a.b of the Toolkit always corresponds to version 5.a.b of the Community edition.

2.1.3

11th June 2020

UPDATES

Minor refactoring to the internals of the Surface when a node is removed. In certain rare circumstances there could be endpoints that did not get cleaned up.

2.1.2

30th May 2020

UPDATES

In the Angular integration, jsPlumbDragDropComponent and jsPlumbSurfaceDropComponent refactored to be Directive rather than Component. This makes no difference to their operation, but it is more correct conceptually, and also allows you to extend them with your own Directives.
updated types: added elementFilter as optional to MiniviewOptions
added support for [elementFilter] on jsPlumbMiniview Angular component
added redraw method to jsPlumbMiniview Angular component

2.1.1

19th May 2020

UPDATES

added onDemand flag and edit method to drawing tools, to enable on-demand attachment of drawing tools instead of via Toolkit selection.
fixed issue in which it was not possible to lasso nodes that were previously in a group that was deleted.
ensure groups on which nodes are dropped have their layout re-run
fixed a race condition in the auto save mechanism that could cause incorrect values for nodes previously belonging to a group that has been removed.

2.1.0

10th May 2020

BREAKING

jsplumbtoolkit-vue2.tgz now contains a version of our components that require you to use the Vue.use(...) approach to including the library. For more information see https://docs.jsplumbtoolkit.com/toolkit/current/articles/demo-vue2.html#bootstrap

For the time being, the original version of the Vue integration is available in jsplumbtoolkit-vue2-runtime.tgz, but this will at some point be removed.

UPDATES

Fixed issue in which a node removed from a group did not have its position updated in the model (when storePositionsInModel is set to true)
Added jsplumbtoolkit-testing package. This provides a set of helper methods for you to use when testing a UI that includes the jsPlumb Toolkit.

2.0.6

1st May 2020

UPDATES

upgrade to Community edition 2.13.2
group:addMember and group:removeMember added to the list of events that instigate an auto save.
added context as an argument to edge factory. This provides all of the context information for the edge being created - source, target, etc. For more information search "edge factory" on docs.jsplumbtoolkit.com.
performance enhancements for large numbers of nodes/edges

2.0.5

27th April 2020

BREAKING

The internal representation of templateRenderer now expects it to be an object containing a render method and a cleanup method. If you have a custom template renderer then you need to update it to satisfy this contract. The render method should just be whatever your current templateRenderer function is. cleanup is expected to perform any deregistration that is required, and also to remove the rendered element from the DOM.

UPDATES

Fixed issue with miniview ignoring the wheelReverse setting of its associated surface.
Update Angular, React and Vue integrations to ensure components are destroyed when the Toolkit is cleared (via the clear() method).
added a clear button to all of the Flowchart demonstrations.
Undo/redo manager clears its history when the related Toolkit is cleared.

2.0.4

14th April 2020

UPDATES

Updated all Angular demonstrations to Angular 9 (with aot)
Minor updates to internal packaging of Toolkit code
Updates to the database visualizer demonstrations:
- separated out id and name members of columns. Previously, the id of the column was also its name, which was mostly just a conceptual problem, but for the React database visualizer it meant the inclusion of some extra code to generate a unique 'key' for each column.
- introduced a 'contacts' table, linked to Author, Publisher
- set detachable:false on edge definition so the user has to use the X button to delete a relationship
Added support in the Undo/redo manager for adding node to/removing node from Groups.
setPosition method of Surface now stores new position in model if configured to do so
Added support in undo/redo for group drag
fixed an issue where in some cases a Node programmatically removed from a Group was not appended back to the canvas.
upgrade to Community edition 2.13.1

2.0.3

1st April 2020

UPDATES

Fixed an issue with jtk-source elements specifying endpoint: if their type definition was specifying a maxConnections for the port, the Toolkit was overwriting that with a value of -1 (unlimited connections).
Updated the template engine to cover a couple of edge cases when a template contains r-if statements and is updated. This only has any bearing if you use "vanilla" Toolkit and not Angular/React/Vue.
added support for autoSaveHandler in the Toolkit constructor and in the setAutoSave method. If you supply this then the Toolkit will decide on when an auto save needs to occur, honouring any autoSaveDebounceTimeout you supply, but your function will handle the actual save.

2.0.2

23rd March 2020

UPDATES

Surface correctly informs the underlying pan/zoom widget when a group has been removed.

2.0.1

20th March 2020

UPDATES

faster uuid method in util
updates to the typescript definitions.
Updated to Community edition 2.13.0. Versions 2.12.10 - 2.13.0 together contain:
- a performance enhancement for painting Bezier/StateMachine connectors
- a fix for connector overlays that can in some circumstances disappear when switching type
- a couple of fixes related to source/target drag methods when setId or setIdChanged is used (does not affect the Toolkit edition)
- a fix for touch events on certain Windows computers running Chrome.
fixed an issue rendering Groups in the React integration

2.0.0

22nd February 2020

UPDATES

added editable flowchart connectors
added editable bezier connectors
upgraded all flowchart demonstrations to use editable connectors and new flowchart example
removed legacy Vue demonstration and support
removed Webpack bundling demonstration (the React demonstrations use Webpack if you're looking for an example)
Storage is now in jsPlumbUtil.Storage, not jsPlumbToolkit.util.Storage
Cookie support removed from Storage. It was a fallback for browsers that did not support local storage.
added getVersion() method to jsPlumbToolkit class

1.18.7

30th January 2020

UPDATES

Updated to Community edition 2.12.9

1.18.6

11th December 2019

UPDATES

Improve tracePath so that the tracing can be paused while traversing nodes.
Updated to Community edition 2.12.8

1.18.5

3rd December 2019

UPDATES

added optional onReload constructor parameter to Selection. If a generator is provided, this function is called whenever the generator has been run.
added optional onBeforeReload constructor parameter to Selection. If a generator is provided, this function is called before the Selection is cleared and then generator re-run.
added optional autoFill constructor parameter to Selection. If true, and a generator is provided, whenever a new Node is added to the Toolkit, the selection is cleared and the generator run automatically.
refactored the Hierarchical and Balloon layouts to extend AbsoluteBackedLayout. By default this functionality is switched off, but setting absoluteBacked:true switches it on, and then any nodes that are disconnected from all other nodes can be placed via their left and top properties. Useful for drag/drop when using these layouts.

1.18.4

30th November 2019

UPDATES

Added setSurface method to the SurfaceDropManager and DropManager. This allows you to use a single drop manager with multiple Surfaces.

1.18.3

29th November 2019

UPDATES

Upgraded to community edition 2.12.7, which contains a couple of fixes for working with the drag selection:
- nodes inside groups cannot be added to the drag selection. Only "top level" nodes and groups can be added to the drag selection.
- nodes in the drag selection that are subsequently added to a group are removed from the drag selection

1.18.2

16th November 2019

UPDATES

added addClass, hasClass and removeClass methods to the Surface widget. These wrap their corresponding methods on the underlying Community instance.
some internal changes to support the upcoming ability to drag flowchart connector paths.
updated the tracePath method to return a handler that exposes play(), pause() and cancel() methods, so the animation can be started/stopped and cancelled.
updated the tracePath method to support paused as an argument. When this is set to true, the animation begins in the paused state.

1.18.1

29th October 2019

UPDATES

updated to Community edition 2.12.5
Added setAutoSave(options) method to Toolkit instance, to configure auto save after instantiation. This method can be called any number of times, and each time it is called any previous auto save setup is discarded.
added lassoEdges:boolean constructor option for Surface widget. When true (defaults to false), edges are included in selections made with the lasso. All edges connecting any two nodes/groups (or ports on nodes/groups) that have been lassoed are included in the selection.
added jsPlumbToolkitLabelDragManager in an optional include, jsplumbtoolkit-labels.tgz. For a discussion of this and of labels in general, see https://docs.jsplumbtoolkit.com/toolkit/current/articles/labels.html.

1.18.0

16th October 2019

UPDATES

Updated the default template engine to reinstate support for custom tags. These were supported in Rotors, the original default template engine, but removed in Knockle, to which we updated recently. After some consideration we decided that custom tags can be useful, and so they're back in.
Added webpack dev server and associated npm script to all the React demonstrations
Updated the readme for licensed/evaluation distributions.

1.17.1

10th October 2019

UPDATES

minor updates to the way updates are handled by the text search add-on
fixed an issue with dragging elements from a palette on touch devices.

1.17.0

4th October 2019

UPDATES

removed the jsplumb-palette component from the Angular integration. It had been deprecated for a few versions. Use the drop manager instead.
added radius to EndpointOptions in types
updated eachNode, eachGroup and eachEdge mthod signature in types; they were missing the idx parameter.
added new full text search plugin. This is an optional import - jsplumbtoolkit-search. The data member of all nodes, groups, ports and edges is used to populate a reverse text index, which you can then search via an API. Full documentation available on https://docs.jsplumbtoolkit.com - search "text search".
extended the Undo/redo manager to support changes made to the dataset via the update*** methods (updateNode, updatePort etc).
extended the Undo/redo manager to support node/group move events. To enable these events you now need to pass a Surface to the Undo/redo manager constructor, not a Toolkit, as move events are specific to the Surface widget and not something the Toolkit deals with.

1.16.2

24th September 2019

UPDATES

support autoSaveDebounceTimeout parameter on Toolkit constructor. Allows requests generated by the auto save mechanism to be regulated a little.

1.16.1

23rd September 2019

UPDATES

added support for specifying edge label directly in an edge definition in a view (without needing to declare it as a Label overlay)
added support for specifying label location inside the backing data for an edge

1.16.0

UPDATES

17th September 2019

updated default template engine to Knockle, which is a port of the previous Rotors template engine, with some changes:

- adds/removes content inside `r-if` and `r-each` loops when updates occur. In Rotors these elements would run

a single time and not respond to changes in the dataset on update.

- does not support the `r-for` element

- does not support custom elements (Toolkit licensees are _extremely_ unlikely to be using these)

- does not support IE8 (which the Toolkit hasnt supported for some time)

updates to code docs to improve generated API docs

1.15.4

30th August 2019

UPDATES

updated the Angular 1.x integration to use the SurfaceDropManager instead of the now deleted registerDroppableNodes method from the Surface widget.

1.15.3

18th August 2019

UPDATES

Updated the types of the events member of a ViewOptions object. It's not a Map; it's a plain JS object, but with a limited set of keys.

Update Angular code to better support situations where the 'id' property is not the one being used as node/port id.

1.15.0

17th July 2019

UPDATES

NOTE: you should use 1.15.1, and not this version. 1.15.1 has an important bugfix.

Removed the registerDroppableNodes method from the Surface widget. Use the drop manager package, or one of its library wrappers.
Updated to Community edition 2.11.0, which includes some changes to the way types are merged by the Community edition, specifically that with the exception of events and overlays, everything is overwritten when merging types. This fixes an issue with edge definitions in the Toolkit, in which anchor values were being merged rather than overridden.
Edge/node/port/group definitions in a View now support a mergeStrategy parameter. If set to "override", overlays and events will completely replace any overlays or events declared on parent definitions, rather than being merged with them.

1.14.11

4th July 2019

UPDATES

Updated the drop manager to take into account any translate CSS rules applied to ancestors of the Surface it is registered against.
Tested against Angular 8
Updated to work with the Ivy compiler in Angular 8 (need fix for Ivy bug https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/31160 in the version of Angular 8 you use)
Marked deprecated the registerDroppableNodes method of Surface, as well as JsPlumbToolkitPaletteComponent in the React integration, jsPlumbPaletteComponent in the Angular integration, and the palette mixin in the Vue integration. Use the drop manager package, or one of its library wrappers.

Update toolkit/surface code to properly detect and handle the case that a port's id changes.
Update the React database visualizer demo to use a dedicated key for column loop, rather than using the column's id property. This allows the column to be renamed without React ditching the component and creating a new one.

1.14.9

6th June 2019

UPDATES

improvements to React integration:
- avoid possible NPE in React integration's JsPlumbToolkitSurfaceComponent when default template renderer is being used
- added removeNode() helper method to BaseNodeComponent

UPDATES

Update to Rotors to support attributes with colons (such as xlink:href on an svg image)
Fix updateNode bug: nodes were not being removed from previous posses before being possibly added to new ones.
Posses are assigned to elements in bulk after load, in case one of them has tried to access a node that is not yet loaded.
Added batch function to Surface widget, to run a function while rendering and events are both suspended.
Added support for rectangular tiles in the tiled background of a Surface widget
Fixed issue that caused an error when dragging an existing edge from one source to another.
zoomToFit on the Surface widget now defaults to filling 90% of the viewport. This can be overriden by supplying a fill parameter:

surface.zoomToFit({fill:0.75});

The link to filters in the documentation no longer gives a 404.
Fixed an issue that was occasionally causing multiple buttons in dialogs.
Fixed an issue that was causing dynamically populated overlays to revert when a new State was applied.
Introduced the concept of typeProperty (and edgeTypeProperty / portTypeProperty). This reflects the fact that for the majority of applications, the function used to determine some object's type simply looks at the value of some given property. By providing the name of this property, rather than a typeFunction, the Toolkit is then able to write an object's type as well as read it.
Added support for setType method
Added small fix to avoid buttons being added more than once to a dialog.

jsPlumbToolkitInstance.load sets Accept:application/json HTTP header if headers not supplied.
