Graphiti should support standard layouts as e.g. SWT or Swing do: PI Tools: Support of grid layout etc. We want to align similar semantical objects in the same "column". JPA Editor: rectangular, hexagonal, circular layout, also on selection only, also only shapes and/or relations This means Graphiti should provide layouting algorithm for shapes
Requested by PI Tools and JPA Editor
First step: clarify how much tools would benefit from this (use JPA editor as example)
I am working on a basic form editor using graphiti, and I would definitively be happy to find a basic layout implementation such as flow layout. This would definitely be a plus.
I would also be very interested in such a feature. I think every Editor which uses automatic layout profits therefrom.
Will not come in Juno timeframe for lack of capacity (huge topic)
I'm also very interested in this feature. Is there a plan, when this will be part of Graphiti? Is there any workaround available at the moment, except of creating a LayoutFeature from scratch?
There are currently no concrete plans for this feature and it is definitly out of scope for Kepler, simply due to capacity limitations. Nevertheless, I would also rate this as a very interesting new feature. Currently the only option is to build a layout feature or to use the eased approach with the ID pattern.
