Can I use OpenLaszlo to create flow charts?

[gbpal]

I need to create an application that can be used to create flow charts. So this will mostly be creating boxes with text in them, and then joining them with arrows.

I went through the documentation quickly, but didnt find any example of this, not did I find evidence of built in support for building such diagrams.

Is there a sample that implements same or similar functionality?

Thanks,

You might get some ideas from a forum search for UML (http://forum.openlaszlo.org/search.php?searchid=5321).

Also lookup OpenLaszlo "drawview" component .. and in incubator folder.

But there are other modelling techniques to consider outside OpenLaszlo/Flash .. e.g. SVG.

You can combine these (in separate containers) with OpenLaszlo views.

Also google search for "UML".

I remeber someone doing this already with laszlo,
It even allowed you to share your flowchart online.

Sorry I cant remeber the URL though

It's an online flow chart. There aren't any built in components that will get this done easily for you, but it is certainly doable in openlaszlo.
