Partition Grid Demo
This demo application lets you experience the usage of a PartitionGrid for
hierarchical and organic layout calculations.
Nodes are assigned to columns/rows by their fill color (gray nodes are unassigned) and the
calculated layout grid is visualized after a layout run to show the effect of the node
assignment to the layout.
Things to Try
-
Click the Hierarchical or Organic button of the toolbar to trigger the corresponding
layout algorithm based on the current node assignment. Note that, the Organic layout
does not support stretching of a group node if it contains child nodes assigned to
different rows or columns. In this case, the Organic layout button will be disabled.
-
Change the layout cell of a (non-gray) node by moving it to a different layout cell. For
the gray nodes that do not have currently active restrictions, select the desired ones
and press the
-button from the
toolbar to add restrictions based on their current location. Then, move them to other
layout cells, if desired. Nodes that are positioned outside the layout grid do not
receive a restriction.
-
Add/remove active restrictions to/from the selected nodes, using buttons
or

toolbar.
- Configure the layout grid using the settings panel on the right.
-
Remove a row/column from the layout grid, by right-clicking on a cell that belongs to
the desired row/column and use the "Delete Row" or "Delete Column" of the settings panel
on the right.
