Re: Make Layout Algorithm Run Continuously

[guilhelm savin <guilhelm.savin AT gmail.com>]

Hi,

Just disable the autolayout and then enable it with your layout algorithm:
/* ================================== */

Graph graph = new MultiGraph("graph");

Viewer viewer = graph.display(false);
SpringBox layout = new SpringBox();
layout.setStabilizationLimit(0.0);
viewer.enableAutoLayout(layout);

Generator gen = new RandomGenerator(6);
gen.addSink(graph);
gen.begin();
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
    gen.nextEvents();
}
gen.end();
/* ================================== */

Best regards.

Hi.

I have tried that, but it does not seem to work. Maybe I am still doing something wrong.

Are there some layout algorithms that don't support this setting?

Here's my code (the graph always freezes after a few seconds):

/* ================================== */
Graph graph = new MultiGraph("graph");

Viewer viewer = graph.display();
SpringBox layout = new SpringBox();
layout.setStabilizationLimit(0.0);
viewer.enableAutoLayout(layout);

Generator gen = new RandomGenerator(6);
gen.addSink(graph);
gen.begin();
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
    gen.nextEvents();
}
gen.end();
/* ================================== */

Best regards,
Jacob
