A FreeNodePlacer is a simple pseudo-placer.
Remarks
The children of local root nodes are not moved. The ITreeLayoutNodePlacer just merges their rotated shapes and routes the edges.
This ITreeLayoutNodePlacer may be useful if a local root node does not have any children or you want to place them manually.

Constructors
Creates a new instance of FreeNodePlacer with default settings.
Parameters
A map of options to pass to the method.
- spacing - number
The spacing between subtrees. This option sets the spacing property on the created object.
- alignPorts - boolean
Whether or not nodes are placed so that the source and target port of an edge are aligned. This option sets the alignPorts property on the created object.
Properties
Gets or sets whether or not nodes are placed so that the source and target port of an edge are aligned.
Remarks
Dependent on the RootNodeAlignment the subtree root is moved in a way that the edge connecting the root to one of its children is straightened.
This setting only applies to the following RootNodeAlignments:
Default Value
false.Ports are not aligned.

Gets the modification matrix that defines the direction of the subtree.
Gets or sets the spacing between subtrees.
Remarks
Default Value
20.Throws
- Exception({ name: 'ArgumentError' })
- if the given spacing is negative

Methods
Creates a IComparer<T> for outgoing edges that takes the rotation into account.
Delegates to createComparer.
Creates a IProcessor that will change all descending ITreeLayoutNodePlacers to FreeNodePlacer.
Parameters
A map of options to pass to the method.
- layouter - TreeLayout
- the current TreeLayout instance
- graph - LayoutGraph
- the input graph
- currentRoot - YNode
- the current root node handled by this ITreeLayoutNodePlacer
Returns
- ↪IProcessor
- the IProcessor suitable for FreeNodePlacer
Overrides
Provides the direction of the connector to the SubtreeShape for each child node.
Remarks
Parameters
A map of options to pass to the method.
- localRoot - YNode
- the local root
- connectorMap - IDataMap
- the map that must be used for storing the direction specifiers of the child nodes
Domain YNode a child node of the local root Values number the direction specifier assigned to the child node

Implements
Returns the rotated subtree shape for the given node.
Remarks
Parameters
A map of options to pass to the method.
- node - YNode
- the node
Returns
- ↪RotatedSubtreeShape
- the subtree shape for the given node
Defined in
Returns the target PortConstraint for the local root's incoming edge.
Remarks
This method translates the PortConstraint according to the rotation described by the modification matrix. It should be used instead of getTPC.
This method may be used in placeSubtreeOfNode to route the edges to the according port. It may be overridden to provide constant PortConstraints for each node.
Parameters
A map of options to pass to the method.
- localRoot - YNode
- the local root
Returns
- ↪PortConstraint
- the PortConstraint for the incoming edge of the local root or ANY if no PortConstraint is assigned for that edge
Defined in
Returns the absolute source point of the given edge depending on the rotation of this ITreeLayoutNodePlacer.
Remarks
This method translates the source point according to the rotation described by the modification matrix. It should be used instead of getSourcePointAbs.
It can be used in an implementation of placeSubtreeOfNode.
Parameters
A map of options to pass to the method.
- edge - Edge
- the edge whose absolute source point should be calculated
Returns
- ↪YPoint
- the translated absolute source point for the given edge and current modification matrix
Defined in
Returns the rotated subtree shape for the subtree rooted at the given node.
Remarks
Parameters
A map of options to pass to the method.
- node - YNode
- the local root node
Returns
- ↪RotatedSubtreeShape
- the rotated subtree shape of the subtree rooted at the given local root node
Defined in
placeSubtree
(nodeShapeProvider: IDataProvider, subtreeShapeProvider: IDataProvider, graph: LayoutGraph, localRoot: YNode, parentConnectorDirection: ParentConnectorDirection) : SubtreeShapeInitializes the local data structures and then delegates the work to the abstract variant of this method (placeSubtreeOfNode).
Parameters
A map of options to pass to the method.
- nodeShapeProvider - IDataProvider
- the IDataProvider for obtaining an initial shape of the root node
Domain YNode Values SubtreeShape the shape of the node - subtreeShapeProvider - IDataProvider
- the IDataProvider for accessing the pre-calculated shapes of the subtrees
Domain YNode Values SubtreeShape the shape of the subtree rooted at the node - graph - LayoutGraph

- localRoot - YNode
- the root of the subtree that should be arranged by this method
- parentConnectorDirection - ParentConnectorDirection
- the direction specifier for the connector of the local root node to its parent node
Returns
- ↪SubtreeShape
- the merged SubtreeShape for the subtree rooted at the local root node
