Layout Properties Sheet: Routing Tab

See Also

The Routing tab of the Layout property sheet lets you specify options for a diagram. The routing algorithm routes edges to run parallel to the x-axis and the y-axis. When edge crossings occur, the algorithm ensures that the edges involved can still be clearly read.

You can use the following options to fine-tune routing.

The following table describes these options in more detail.

Section Option Description
Horizontal Spacing Spacing Between Nodes The distance between diagram elements.
Spacing Between Edges The distance between parallel links.
Vertical Spacing Spacing Between Nodes The distance between diagram elements.
Spacing Between Edges The distance between parallel links.
Fix Node Sizes Whether elements are to keep their sizes in spite of changes in link spacing.
Fix Node Positions Whether elements are to keep their positions in spite of changes in links.
