Hi,

Im very interested in the composite layout because it seemed to be able to handle large diagrams.  However, I tried composite layout with LayeredLayout and it still doesn't work for us.  Could you give me some hints or examples about how to use the composite layout properly?

In our senario, we have 3 kinds of nodes: groups, steps and files.  When it loads the diagram and do the first arrange, it worked fine. But when we add about 20 files on top of it, the diagram explodes.  However, if we use flowchart layout, it worked fine.  If you have any suggestions or best practice, please let me know.

Much appreciated.

Hi Meppy,

Thanks for your response!  The diagram crash in our end and it is because we had an cycle in our code.  It is resolved now.

However, we got another issue that we have a part of code which first do an arrange() using LayeredLayout, then set position for some of the nodes.  The set position part is not working now.  I tried to set the position in Layout Progress handler when (current < total), but it still doesn't work.  Could you help me with this one please?

Thanks Meppy.  I understand why the set position doesn't work now.

Is there a way that we can adjust the node positions after the auto arrange?


Regards
Bill
