Decides which algorithm is used to compute the y coordinate of each node. This influences the length of edges, the number of edge bends, and the height of the diagram. We have different algorithms available, with different optimization goals:
BRANDES_KOEPF
Minimizes the number of edge bends at the expense of diagram size: diagrams drawn with this algorithm are usually higher than diagrams drawn with other algorithms.LINEAR_SEGMENTS
Computes a balanced placement.BUCHHEIM_JUENGER_LEIPERT
Also computes a balanced placement, but a little faster.INTERACTIVE
Tries to keep the preset y coordinates of nodes from the original layout. For dummy nodes, a guess is made to infer their coordinates. Requires the other interactive phase implementations to have run as well.SIMPLE
Minimizes the area at the expense of... well, pretty much everything else.
