Public Class NormalizingGraphElementOrderStage _
	Inherits AbstractLayoutStage

Layout stage that can be used to normalize the order of the elements within a graph. Amongst other factors, the results produced by layout algorithms usually depend on the order of the nodes and edges within a graph. Unfortunately, useful operations such as hiding or unhiding elements from a graph or simply invoking layout algorithms on a graph will have the potential side effect of changing that order. With this layout stage it is possible to establish a predefined order of nodes and edges within a graph to avoid non-deterministic layout behavior. Defining the order of nodes and edges is done by associating each node or edge in the graph with a Comparable value using DataProviders registered with the key ComparableNodeDpKey , or ComparableEdgeDpKey respectively. the DataProvider key
