The graphviz command neato -n can be used to layout a graph with given node
positions. Using the library directly the engine is called nop.
If engine nop is used once the flag -n is set for all future invocations of
neato (see the following script):
================================================================
#!/usr/bin/ruby -w
require 'gv'
g = Gv.graph('G') # create graph g
gn1 = Gv.node(g, 'n1') # add node n1
Gv.setv(gn1, 'pos', '10,10') # set its position
# the following line only works if all nodes have a "pos" attribute:
Gv.layout(g,'nop') # compute the layout using neato -n
h = Gv.graph('H') # create graph h
hn1 = Gv.node(h, 'n1') # add node n1
# the following line should work without position information:
Gv.layout(h,'neato') # compute the layout using neato
================================================================
The last line gives the error:
| Error: node n1 in graph H has no position
| as required by the -n flag
If you remove (uncomment) the line
| Gv.layout(g,'nop') # compute the layout using neato -n
there is no error.
So I assume using 'nop' once sets the -n flag and using 'neato' afterwards
does not remove it. I found no way to manually reset this flag.
Thanks a lot,
Klaus
