BasicLinkStyleLayout

The Basic Link Style Layout is a common base class of all layouts algorithms that offer no complex link shapes. It offers only the link styles "straight links" and "no link reshape" for the regular links. It offers common options, for handling multiple links between the same pair of nodes, and for handling self-links that start and end at the same node.

While the main purpose of BasicLinkStyleLayout is to serve as a base class for some other layout algorithms, the Basic Link Style Layout can also be used by itself. In this case, it does not place any nodes, but it can route certain links. Links between different node pairs can be routed as straight lines. Multiple links between different node pairs can be routed as shifted bundle of straight links, or as bundle with one bend point. Self-links that start and end at the same node can be routed in a rectangular or square style (or, if spline links are used, as approximation of a circle).

Here are sample drawings produced with the Basic Link Style Layout algorithm:
