Re: [visualization-api] Word Tree IDs

Hi Josh,

Word tree isn't going to replace the org chart. There's no way to make the
org chart display horizontally, but you can use the allowCollapse option
and the collapse() method to make the fan-out of your chart more manageable.

 Hi Jon,

 Thanks for the reply.  I actually have been using the Org Chart all along,
 but I was wondering if Word Tree was going to replace Org Chart.  I
 remember reading that Org Chart was either going away or being overhauled,
 so I'm anxious to see what happens.

 In my scenario, I'm using Org Chart to show people, who they supervise and
 who supervises them.  It's pretty simple I think.  Some people supervise 15
 people, some people are new they don't supervise anyone.  So my problem is,
 the chart ends up being like 15,000 pixels wide because each person's
 bubble won't align underneath another person's bubble.  I'll have to post a
 screenshot.  But what that means is, everyone (we're talking 100-150
 people) gets their own column in the chart.  Therefore, it's so wide that
 it's not really presentable.  I don't think it's a bug, but it would
 certainly make a huge difference if it could be worked out somehow.  Picky
 picky, I know.

 But anyway, thanks for the message.  I'll toy with Word Tree and we'll see
 what happens.

 Thanks,

 Josh

 nodeListData.addRow([600, 'Child 2', 500, 1, 'black']);

 In the last example, I basically added a static boss that even the
 highest ranking boss would belong to, this way we always have a zero (0)
 ID.  It seems that as long as I have a 0 ID, I can skip any other number.
 Am I safe to continue using it like this or will I run into troubles later
 on?

See screenshot.  The chart is super wide, so this is basically the middle 
of it.  You can see how the bubbles don't align themselves under anything 
above... most of the time.  If I could get them to cozy up, that would be 
perfect.
