how to Get RadDiagramShape by its name in c#?

[Sachin]

I am working on a project in which RadDiagramShape is generated dynamically in foreach loop.

 

I need to change text of each Shape at each second. For that i need to access the Shape object by its name property which is unique. 

 

How to i get RadDiagramShape object by its name?

Hi Sachin,

Thank you for writing.

The shapes are stored in a ShapeCollection object which is exposed by the RadDiagram.Shapes property. The ShapeCollection class inherits the System.Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyCollection<T> class which cannot be enumerated by name.

I can suggest to iterate your collection and search for the shape by its Name or use LINQ: 

var shape = this.radDiagram1.Shapes.Where(s => s.Name == "YourName").FirstOrDefault();

I hope this helps. Should you have further questions please do not hesitate to write back.

Regards,
Hristo
