I need to incorporate a flowchart design surface into an application we're developing to allow users to create what are essentially workflows/schedules. I need to be able to create my own 'shapes', set custom properties on them and possibly have a bit of logic in there too (if, while etc).

I know I need to take a look at hosting WF in the application. It looks like a good fit, but what other designer compoments out there could I use?

In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
