Remarks
A link connects the Link.FromNode to the Link.ToNode.
The rendering of a link is determined by the Diagram's Diagram.LinkTemplate. This DataTemplate may be a simple LinkShape (WPF) or Path (Silverlight). However it is usually a LinkPanel, which supports child elements that act as arrowheads or text labels or other decoration on the link.
A link may also have a LabelNode. In this case there is a separate Node that is associated with the link. The node's Node.IsLinkLabel property will be true. It is usually positioned at the mid-point of the link. It supports its own link connections and may be independently selected or moved. The label node may be a Group, in which case all of its member nodes are link label nodes that are positioned by the LinkPanel.
You may not apply any transforms to a Link; that is reserved to GoXam for future use.
