Public Property Weight As Single

 Property Value

A float value specifying the weight of this item. The default value is 1.

 Remarks

Currently Weight is used in the implementations of:

• The SpringLayout class: the weight of a link connecting two nodes is multiplied by the desired NodeDistance to determine the final distance between the nodes.
• The PathFinder class: an override of the FindShortestPath method uses the Weight values of nodes and/or links to find the path with smallest total weight.
