Arbitrary layout are already possible, though the navigation possibilities limit their use. It's not a priority as 3D layout is recognized to be more confusing than helping but I saw some nice ideas, for instance representing the time as the Z position. So it is in the roadma. > navigation: > - Translation of the layout (referred to as right mouse button dragging) > - Tilt in 3D (Gephi's 3D mode) > - Zooming: essentially camera movement aligned with camera direction (Gephi > mouse wheel interaction) > - Rotation of the layout around arbitrary axes (is this planned for Gephi?) > - Orbit: rotation of the camera around a point in the layout (is this planned > for Gephi?) Rotation and Orbit are not planned but rotation could be developed if we find the time. > in case of tilted 3D display, when moving nodes, node and mouse pointer are out of sync I was unable to solve the moving issue in the current engine and moving nodes in 3D is not really working now. I think you are both more skilled than me for these things. > using mouse wheel zoom can screw up the camera when zooming in too much. You mean in 3D? I know the problem, though I don't exactly know why. I can explain how zooming works currently however. My idea was to scale the zooming factor according to the distance camera-object. More far you are, faster you're zooming. As zooming works with the mouse position, I know if objects are under the mouse ( I actually look for bounding boxes). With this distance I get the zooming factor. This code is probably not safe enough to handle negative numbers or something like that, which may cause these issues. -- Mouse and view are not moving synchronously when dragging canvas https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/604687 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Gephi Team, which is subscribed to 0.7.
