Hi Johan, I've just commited RTAnchorConstraint to latest Roassal, see class-side example there.
I've been using it for my class diagrams where it works quite well, however class diagrams are usually orthogonal-ish, which makes it a bit nicer. The Anchor will avoid intersecting it's own line, and one of the end shapes (it should both but apparently I have a bug there...). It doesn't look at other lines, however you can specify on which side it should be. (You can also put the node label inside the circle with `el @ (RTLabelled new center)` but you probably know that.) I have also a global edge labeling layout which produces good placement… but it's slow as hell… I need to write a fast flow alogrithm… Also the Anchor currently doesn't work with self-edges. On the other hand Roassal doesn't have self-edges yet so it shouldn't be a problem. :) Peter On Mon, Mar 7, 2016 at 2:34 PM, Johan Fabry <jfa...@dcc.uchile.cl> wrote: > > Better late than never :-) (working on the holidays backlog) > > I only have one request: better positioning on labels of nodes and edges. > For example see the image: three of the four labels are badly positioned > because the bounding box of their text is intersected by one or more edges. > > I know that to solve this generally is hard, but for simple cases like > this it should be possible. > > Ah, and it should work well with animations and dragging of course ;-) > > On Feb 24, 2016, at 05:51, Alexandre Bergel <alexandre.ber...@me.com> > wrote: > > Dear community, > > As you may have seen, Roassal has entered a stabilization phase.
