Hello Tamás,

Thanks, indeed the layout just needed a translation to fit in the drawing,
great!

I couldn't find what causes the issue and reproduce it on a smaller graph,
I'm afraid...
I packed everything in a pickle dump, if you're willing to check my
original graph (which isn't small, unfortunately it has around 8k nodes). Here
is the dump <http://demo.ovh.com/en/51d0389055f6deeb9edac4597852c594/>.

Here is the code that I used with this file and which showed the issue :
import igraph
import pickle

(g,layout_node_layer) = pickle.load(open("graph_export.dat", mode="rb"))

layout = g.layout_sugiyama(layers=layout_node_layer, hgap=1) #Using a
maxiter=10000 improved a bit the layout but not by much because of the
artifacts
layout_bounding_box = layout.bounding_box()
layout.translate((-1*layout_bounding_box.left, -1*layout_bounding_box.top))
layout_bounding_box = layout.bounding_box()
print("Layout computed", layout_bounding_box)

igraph.plot(g, "test_graph.pdf", layout=layout, vertex_label=None,
bbox=layout_bounding_box)
#igraph.write(g, "test_graph.dot", format="dot")
print("File created")

Thank you for all the help you gave me, and good luck if you try to solve
this problem.
If you manage to, I'd be curious to know what is its cause though.

Best regards,
Antonin Lenfant
