Tree Layout with Node Placers

This demo shows how to use node placers with the Tree Layout . A node placer is responsible for the arrangement of a local root node and all of its subtrees.

yFiles comes with predefined node placers that provide a variety of subtree arrangement schemes. This example uses three of them:

Node 1 uses a LayeredNodePlacer , that places child nodes with the same depth in the tree in the same horizontal layer.
Node 2 uses a LeftRightNodePlacer , that places child nodes left and right of of a single vertical bus.
Node 6 uses a DoubleLineNodePlacer , that places child nodes in two horizontal lines.

Code Snippet

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

Demos
