StraightLineEdgeRouter

Show Usages
This edge routing algorithm routes edges as straight lines considering the specified LayoutPortCandidates.

Remarks

Layout Style

The edges connect to their ports with straight lines. This may lead to edges crossing nodes.

Concept

StraightLineEdgeRouter will first invoke the LayoutStageBase.coreLayout if one exists. Then, it will remove all bends from the edges and will place the ports either in the center of the nodes or at a location specified by EdgePortCandidates and NodePortCandidates. Port groups are handled as a postprocessing step by the portPlacementStage.

Constructors

StraightLineEdgeRouter

(coreLayout?: ILayoutAlgorithm)
Creates a new instance of StraightLineEdgeRouter with an optional LayoutStageBase.coreLayout.

Parameters

coreLayout?: ILayoutAlgorithm
The core layout algorithm.

Properties

coreLayout

: ILayoutAlgorithm
Gets or sets the core ILayoutAlgorithm that is wrapped by this stage.
final

Property Value

the core layout routine

Default Value

The default value is: null

enabled

: boolean
Gets or sets a value that determines whether this stage should do anything but execute the coreLayout.

By default, when constructed, stages should be enabled. Users may disable a stage's functionality by setting this property to false.

Stages that can guarantee that the graph will not change can choose to not even execute the coreLayout when disabled.

final

portPlacementStage

: PortPlacementStage
readonly
Gets a LayoutStageBase that provides support for EdgePortCandidates, NodePortCandidates or port groups.

Methods

applyLayout

(graph: LayoutGraph)
Implementation of the ILayoutAlgorithm interface and main entry point for the layout calculation.
This implementation checks the enabled state and when it's not enabled, will delegate to the coreLayout, directly. When the stage is enabled, all the work will be delegated to applyLayoutImpl, instead.
final

Parameters

graph: LayoutGraph
The graph to apply the layout to.

applyLayoutImpl

(graph: LayoutGraph)
protected
Routes the edges as straight lines from their source to their target after invoking the LayoutStageBase.coreLayout.
protected

Parameters

graph: LayoutGraph
the input graph

createLayoutData

<T> (): TextendsIGraph?StraightLineEdgeRouterData<INode, IEdge, ILabel, ILabel>:StraightLineEdgeRouterData<LayoutNode, LayoutEdge, LayoutNodeLabel, LayoutEdgeLabel>
Returns an instance of LayoutData<TNode, TEdge, TNodeLabel, TEdgeLabel> that can be used to perform item-specific configurations for the StraightLineEdgeRouter.
The generic type arguments of the created layout data depend on the provided type parameter for this method.
final

Return Value

TextendsIGraph?StraightLineEdgeRouterData<INode, IEdge, ILabel, ILabel>:StraightLineEdgeRouterData<LayoutNode, LayoutEdge, LayoutNodeLabel, LayoutEdgeLabel>
an instance of layout data that can be used to perform item-specific configurations for the given StraightLineEdgeRouter.
