I did this with Flash 8 and ActionScript 2.0. For each graph edge, I used a spring formula to keep nodes together. For each node, I used a repulsion formula to bounce them off each other. Each node was represented by a drawn cirlce movie clip and a textfield in the center of the circle for the node name. It does get a little sluggish when over 25 nodes are in the graph, luckily that was a low probability for my project. Anyways... long story short, I'm porting it to Flex/AS3 this week probably. It's a fun project. I can't wait to see if it's faster using the new stuff. -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
