    The type of the element to be displayed. Can usually be implicit.

Parameters

  • element
    Type: T

  • xoffset
    Type: System.Double

    The location of the new shape relative to the diagram.

  • yoffset
    Type: System.Double

    The location of the new shape relative to the diagram.

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.ArchitectureTools.Extensibility.Presentation.IShape<T>
An IShape<T> representing the new shape.

Remarks

You cannot explicitly display relationships or component parts or ports. A relationship appears on a diagram automatically whenever both of its ends appear. When you display a component, its component parts and ports are also displayed.
