Layout Features Tutorial

Hierarchic Layout with Sequence Constraints

This demo shows how to customize the order of the nodes in a layer (sequencing) when using Hierarchic Layout.

Sequence constraints

Nodes 2, 6 and 11 are configured to be placed at the beginning (or head) of the sequence with the placeAtHead method.

Click the button in the toolbar to toggle between Hierarchic Layout with and without configured constraints.

Code Snippet

You can copy the code snippet to configure the layout from GitHub.

Demos

See the Sequence Constraints demo for more elaborate examples of the constraints functionality.

Documentation

See the Constrained Node Sequencing section in the Developer's Guide for an in-depth discussion of the relevant concepts.
