Another Layout question

Hi

For the same source data , I am trying to get consistent layout.

I try by pre-processing the node before layout routine ( always move to same location) such as move nodes to to 0,0:  I then set the bound to a fix size e.g width and height to Node count * 100
I also remove an randomize settings ( randomize = false)

However, though my output is similar, the it is still slight different each time.
See attachment.

Is there a way to get get consistent layout for same data for Spring, and Annealing at least?

Hi,

If you start SpringLayout with all nodes placed together at the same location, the arrange method will use some randomization to scatter them away from that point. In such case, set RandomSeed to a fixed number to get consistent results. The arrangement also depends on the size of the layout area, so try setting the same diagram.Bounds or SpringLayout.LayoutArea before calling Arrange.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan
