the flowchart is below: Pool1 is a Box. There is a Goup, all the box is in the group. every pool is a master object of a group.There may be more than one pool on the flowchart.


I want to Layout the box in Pool1, and i don't want to layout the Pool.

Is there some good idea?

We could implement a way to layout that automatically, if we can ignore the links that go between different pools. Then you could call Route() on such links, so at least they do not cross nodes. Will that be ok?

Ok, we'll try to add to the 4.2.3 release an Arrange(BoxCollection) method. Until then, when arranging a "pool", enable the IgnoreLayout property of all boxes outside the pool so that the layout algorithm does not move them. Doing that for all pools and using the LayoutArea property should arrange the boxes nicely, each group in their respective area. At this time the LayoutArea property is available only with the spring and anneal layouts.
