   bool islinklabel,
   string category,
   DataTemplate templ
)

Parameters

nodedata: the data that this node is bound to; must not be a Node or any UIElement
model: the model that the nodedata is in
isgroup: whether the node should be a Group instead of a Node
islinklabel: whether the node acts as the label node for a link
category: the category of the node
templ: the DataTemplate for the ContentTemplate property

Return Value

Remarks

You may wish to override this method to construct a subclass of Node when you have overridden one of the node methods, such as FindPort.

The implementation of this method should not modify the model.
