Basic graph layout parameters

» Graph orientation is specified by

   orientation: top_to_bottom
         /*or*/ bottom_to_top
         /*or*/ left_to_right
         /*or*/ right_to_left

» The position of the graph origin is specified by

   xbase: integer
   ybase: integer

» The scale factor of a graph is specified by

   scaling: float // decimal relation to 100%

Graph layout algorithms

» Specified by

   layout_algorithm: algorithm

» Available algorithms

   normal
   tree
   forcedir
   dfs
   minbackward
   maxdepth            mindepth
   maxdepthslow        mindepthslow
   maxindegree         minindegree
   maxoutdegree        minoutdegree
   maxdegree           mindegree

Hints

» Graph orientation, graph layout algorithms, and various layout parameters can be switched interactively in the Layout Dialog Box

» GDL supports irrational scaling factors

» aiSee understands the following alternative notations:

   toptobottom     // instead of top_to_bottom
   bottomtotop     // instead of bottom_to_top
   lefttoright     // instead of left_to_right
   righttoleft     // instead of right_to_left
   layoutalgorithm // instead of layout_algorithm
