This layout algorithm iteratively searches for a configuration
of the graph where the length of the links is close to a user-defined
or a default value.
Example of FL algorithm
The following code sample uses the ibm_ilog.graphlayout.forcedirected.ForceDirectedLayout class. This code sample shows
how to perform a Force-directed Layout:
var forceDirectedLayout = new ibm_ilog.graphlayout.forcedirected.ForceDirectedLayout(); graph.setNodeLayout(forceDirectedLayout); graph.performGraphLayout();
Important
All explanations in the subsequent sections regarding
the shape of the links in Force-directed Layout
are valid only if the link layout is disabled.
