Hierarchical Layout with Constraints

This demo shows how to customize the assignment of the nodes to the layers (layering) and the order of the nodes in a layer (sequencing) when using HierarchicalLayout.

Layer Constraints

The layout is configured such that node 4 and node 5 are placed on the same layer.

The default hierarchical layout without constraints will place node 5 on the next layer.

Sequence Constraints

The layout is configured such that node 5 follows after node 4.

Things to Try

Click the button in the toolbar to toggle between hierarchical layout with and without configured constraints.
