Generic label placement, with and without modifying the graph layout
-Modifications to Voronoi node overlap adjustment
+New overlap adjustment strategies
+ - adjustment strategies sensitive to edges
- eliminate the nonlinear adjustment
- - use convex hull or other boundary rather than bounding box
-Node overlap adjustment strategies sensitive to edges
-Make drivers dynamic
-Edge routing variations: line segments, orthogonal, polyline, splines
-Generalized port/spline routing
+ - use convex hull or alpha shapes
Orthogonal layouts
-User-defined nodes in all code generators
New dot techniques:
- symmetrize layouts
- speed up edge crossing counting
- Built-in support for better aspect ratios
- Ulrik's improvements with network simplex
- Better aspect ratio
-Spline router improvement (Gordon's improvements, alpha adjustments, less
+ - symmetrize layouts
