Remarks

The Units property specifies the unit for measurements in a diagram, for instance, DefaultHeight (custom shape properties), Size (grid properties), or Left (node and edge data-bound settings).

User interface elements display measurements in ViewUnits.

<dx:ASPxDiagram ID="Diagram" runat="server" Width="100%" Height="600px" Units="Px"
    NodesDataSourceID="FlowNodesDemoDataSource" EdgesDataSourceID="FlowEdgesDemoDataSource" >
    <Mappings>
        <Node Key="ID" Type="Type" Width="Width" Height="Height" />
        <Edge Key="ID" FromKey="FromID" ToKey="ToID" Text="Text" />
    </Mappings>
</dx:ASPxDiagram>

Run Demo: Node and Edge Data Sources

When you export a diagram, the control saves the diagram’s data in its own text format. The resulting JSON object contains measurements in twips, regardless of the Units or ViewUnits property values. Do not modify this JSON object because modified data can load incorrectly.
