-tanim

Animates the layer partitioning phase. See animation after relayout.

-timelimit Int

Sets the time limit to Int seconds of real time. If the time limit is exceeded, the fastest possible layout mode is switched on. A time limit does not mean that the layout really needs that much time. Layout may be faster because the graph structure is very simple, or it may be slower because even the fastest possible layout already exceeds the time limit. Note: Layout depends on real time, i.e. the demand on computer resources. Thus, a given time limit may result in two identical runs of the program taking different amounts of time.

-tm Float Unit

Sets the top margin of the output to Float Units. No bottom margin may be specified otherwise this option doesn't work. The various Units are:

• in  inch
• ft  foot
• mm  millimeter
• cm  centimeter
• dm  decimeter
• m   meter
• px  pixel

The px unit is supported as of aiSee 2.1.92. For older versions, we recommend using the in unit in conjunction with the option -xdpi. For example, instead of specifying -width 350 px, you can specify -width 3.5 in -xdpi 100.

When exporting to PostScript, the option -tm is useful only if the graph fits on the page. By default, the graph is centered on the page.

-touchback

The parent process is contacted after each relayout by accessing the specification file, i.e. it gets a new time stamp. This option is useful for Unix versions of aiSee only. See also -callback, -sigback, and graph animation.

-version

Prints the version and copyright message.

-view Mode

This attribute enables one of the six fish-eye view modes to be selected. The default value is normal. The corresponding GDL graph attribute is view. For the available view Modes, see also GDL in a Nutshell.
