Hi,

I think at this time the links are distributed uniformly along the node border. We'll check if we can modify the router to use a fixed distance, though probably it won't be possible for all nodes, e.g. ones that have too many links to fit along their circumference.

Hi Mihai,

Do you need this LinkPadding as a fixed distance between adjacent links, or as a minimum distance? When you say that the end points should repulse each other, I understand it as a minimum distance. But in that case, what will be the difference from the current implementation, which distributes the end points along the node side?

Hi Stoyan,

Yes, exactly!

Hi Mihai,

We haven't had yet.

Hi Mihai,

You can't override any of the OrthogonalRouter methods at this time. You might try a different approach. When you have a large group of links between the same nodes, replace some subset of them such that a link is split into two temporary links that connect a shared temporary node. Based on the number of initial links, you could split them into several such groups; e.g. for 20 links as in your example, you could leave 5 of them as they are, and replace the others with 3 virtual nodes each connecting 5 pairs of virtual links. After the layout completes, replace the virtual links and nodes with the actual links again, merging their control point arrays found by the layout and assigning the merged points to the actual links.
