I searched on "graph layout" and "graph direction" and found no hits on this, so if it's been discussed before please forgive me.
I would like graphs laid out left-to-right -- flipped across the vertical axis relative to the current layout. Having used many ontology graphers, starting with the Grapher package on the Xerox 1108/9, and including the NIKL and ISI graphers, and having built a few myself, all of the ones I've seen, used, or built have the root at the left and subclasses extending to the right. This may seem minor, but it's got a very Through-the-Looking-Glass feeling to me, and is so counter-intuitive that I'm not sure I want to try to adjust my thinking unless it's absolutely necessary. Is there any way to reverse the direction of the layout? It should be a matter of taking the max X coordinate for the current logical layout and subtracting the X coordinate of each layout element from that -- at least that's the way the ISI grapher and the Interlisp-D grapher handled it (although since the default was left-to-right, this was to get a right-to-left layout). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TopBraid Composer Users" group.
