Hi,

We're using various different ways to search through our nodes based on their parent or their children or the level that they sit on in the flow etc. We have a need to have a tree-like structure which would mean no 2 nodes share the same y coordinate; from this, we need to use the "level" that they sit on to automatically select an entry in a list (i.e. the user selects the node at position 7 and entry 7 of a list is selected)...

The complication here is that our users are free to place nodes whereever they like, so, if you have 10 nodes on the canvas and they drop a new one onto node 4 then it'll create a tree within the tree, thus changing the locations of every other node.

Is there a simple command that gets a list of nodes which is ordered on their y or x location on the Diagram ?? I'm sure i can do this manually but i have a feeling it'll be very fiddly so i thought i'd check to see if there's one already there first!

I hope that all makes sense
