 Parameters

left

The x-coordinate of the left side of the layout area.

top

The y-coordinate of the top side of the layout area.

right

The x-coordinate of the right side of the layout area.

If the layout area is not explicitly set, the algorithm will choose one suitable for the graph size. In that case the WidthHeightRatio property specifies how much larger the layout area width should be than its height.
