Creates a hint object for a group node that should be inserted incrementally. The group will be placed on a suitable position. The descendants of the group may be associated with hints created by method createLayerIncrementallyHint(), createSequenceIncrementallyHint() or this method (if the descendant is an inner group). All hints of the group's descendants are interpreted relative to the group node. Descendants without hints keep their relative ordering within the group node (but not with elements outside the group). The position of groups without incremental hint depends on the position of their descendants (i.e., the group is not interpreted as fixed - it is simply ignored).

Note: Descendants of incremental groups must not be associated with exact coordinate hints (see method createUseExactCoordinatesHint(), createUseExactSequenceCoordinatesHint() and createUseExactLayerCoordinatesHint()).

Parameters

See also

Creates a hint object for a node that should be inserted incrementally during the layering phase. This will place the node in a suitable layer, thus possibly creating new layers. Neighbors of this node may be marked as to be laid out incrementally, too. This makes it possible to incrementally add whole subgraphs to the current layout.

Parameters

See also

Creates a hint object for a node or edge that should be inserted incrementally during the sequencing phase. This will prevent the layering from being changed. The node will be placed into an already existing layer that is determined by the com.yworks.yfiles.layout.hierarchic.incremental.HierarchicLayouterImpl.layerer implementation, i.e. "from sketch". Adjacent edges will automatically be rerouted optimally.

Parameters

See also

Creates a hint object for a node that should be inserted incrementally into the graph at its exact current position. The node will be placed into an already existing layer that is determined by the layerer (com.yworks.yfiles.layout.hierarchic.incremental.HierarchicLayouterImpl.layerer) implementation. The position within its layer will be determined by its current position.

Parameters

See also

Creates a hint object for a node that should be inserted incrementally into the graph at its exact current layer position. The node will be placed into an already existing layer that is determined by the layerer (com.yworks.yfiles.layout.hierarchic.incremental.HierarchicLayouterImpl.layerer) at the position that it occupies initially. The position within its layer will be determined by the com.yworks.yfiles.layout.hierarchic.incremental.NodePlacer.

Parameters

See also

Creates a hint object for a node that should be inserted incrementally into the graph at its exact current sequence position. The node will be placed into an already existing layer that is determined by the layerer (com.yworks.yfiles.layout.hierarchic.incremental.HierarchicLayouterImpl.layerer) at the position that is deemed best for its layer. The position within the sequence of its layer will be determined by its current coordinates.
