Example
Partition
The partition layout computes a two-dimensional spatial subdivision of a hierarchical (tree visualization); each node has a closed range in x and y. The nodes are bound to arcs for:
- a sunburst (<math>x \to \theta, y \to r</math> ),
- or rectangles for an icicle tree.
Chord
The chord layout computes an angular partition from a weighted adjacency matrix, enabling radial diagrams in the style of Circos.
Force
The force layout combines physical simulation and iterative constraint relaxation for stable graph layout.
Stack
The stack layout computes the y0 baseline for stacked graphs
Squarified treemap
The squarified treemap layout computes another spatial partition well-suited for animation.
Pack
Pack layout to represent a Hierarchy (or a tree).
