Methods
The Basic Link Style Layout is a common base class of all layouts algorithms that offer no complex link shapes. It offers only the link styles "straight links" and "no link reshape" for the regular links. It offers common options, for handling multiple links between the same pair of nodes, and for handling self-links that start and end at the same node.
While the main purpose of BasicLinkStyleLayout
is to
serve as a base class for some other layout algorithms, the Basic
Link Style Layout can also be used by itself. In this case, it does
not place any nodes, but it can route certain links. Links between
different node pairs can be routed as straight lines. Multiple links
between different node pairs can be routed as shifted bundle of
straight links, or as bundle with one bend point. Self-links that
start and end at the same node can be routed in a rectangular or
square style (or, if spline links are used, as approximation of a
circle).
Here are sample drawings produced with the Basic Link Style Layout algorithm:
See the corresponding chapter of the IBM ILOG Dojo Diagrammer User's Manual for details on the algorithm, the types of graphs for which this algorithm can be used, the features and limitations, code samples, parameters, and so on.
