Toolbox Items

Because the custom DataNode type introduced in the star diagrams assembly is not a simple shape nodes, you cannot create a toolbox item for it using the ShapeTool.Shape attached property.

Instead, the star diagrams assembly includes a toolbox item resource for DataNode which you can reference using the StaticResource element:

CopyA toolbox group for fixed flow diagram nodes

<ms:DiagramToolBoxGroup Header="Nodes">
  <StaticResource ResourceKey="{x:Static ms:StandardStarDiagramToolBoxItems.DataNodeToolKey}" />
</ms:DiagramToolBoxGroup>

Remember to merge the StandardStarDiagramsToolBoxItems resource dictionary.
