public interface JGraphLayout
The class that defines a layout algorithm. This class enforces the following principles on the layouts:
  • Layouts operate on cells, not cell views
  • All access to "current" (ie. changed) attributes should go via the facade provided to the run method
  • All access to the graph model should go via the facade passed to the run method
  • The facade should decouple the layout from special jgraph features such as partial views, and collapsed/expanded (edge) groups
  • Custom layouts can define extended facades for common functionality
Long-running layouts should additionally implement the Stoppable interface.
