Gojs — Remove Watermark

After including the go.js or go-debug.js script, initialize the license key before creating any diagrams.

JavaScript Example:

// IMPORTANT: Set this BEFORE creating any Diagram or Part
go.licenseKey = "YOUR_PURCHASED_LICENSE_KEY_HERE";

// Now create your diagram
const myDiagram = new go.Diagram("myDiagramDiv");
// The watermark will be GONE.

TypeScript/Angular/React Example:

import * as go from 'gojs';

// Set the key globally
(go as any).licenseKey = "YOUR_LICENSE_KEY";


// Proceed with diagram initialization
const diagram = new go.Diagram("diagramDiv");

Verification: Once the license key is set correctly, the “Evaluation” text will disappear immediately. No additional CSS hacks or DOM manipulation is required.

Beyond legal penalties, attempting to remove GoJS watermarks carries practical risks. Modified software may introduce bugs, security vulnerabilities, or performance issues. Additionally, distribution of cracked software can damage professional reputations and lead to termination of employment or client contracts. Companies found using unlicensed software face fines, legal fees, and mandatory audit costs that far exceed license prices. After including the go

Let us debunk persistent myths found in developer forums:

Myth 1: "There is a hidden config flag like showWatermark: false."
Fact: No. The license check is hardened. You cannot disable it via JSON or diagram configuration.

Myth 2: "Northwoods doesn't care about small companies using the trial in production."
Fact: They do. Their license enforcement team scans public websites. Your small e-commerce dashboard WILL be found if it is publicly accessible. Verification: Once the license key is set correctly,

Myth 3: "If I use the go-debug.js file instead, there is no watermark."
Fact: The debug version also contains the watermark logic. Debugging does not bypass licensing.

Myth 4: "Minifying my code will hide the fact that I removed the watermark."
Fact: Northwoods can still run detection scripts. The presence of a GoJS diagram without a valid license key is detectable via JavaScript memory inspection.
