Multi dimensional layout Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
I'm finding I always build the same diagrams (currently OmniGraffle 5.0.2)



I'd love to use auto layout with this, but haven't figured out how to do it yet.

I try and use the outline mode, even ignoring the grouping parameters:



I get a total hodgepodge:



Could someone suggest a layout mode, grouping, or way to outline this?

Thanks a lot,
Keenan

For those GraphViz people, the graph looks like:

Code:
digraph  {
	node [shape="Mrecord"]
	subgraph cluster_init {
	    subgraph {
	        rank="same";
		ext_i2 [label="ext"]
	        init -> ext_i2
	    }
	}
	subgraph cluster_compute {
		subgraph {
		    rank="same";
		    ext_c1 [label="ext"]
		    ext_c2 [label="ext"]
		    compute [label="Compute Totals"]
		    ext_c1 -> compute -> ext_c2
		}
	}
	subgraph cluster_formulate {
		subgraph {
		    rank="same";
		    ext_f1 [label="ext"]
		    ext_f2 [label="ext"]
		    ext_f1 -> formulate -> ext_f2
		}
	}
	#link clusters
	init -> compute -> formulate
}

OmniGraffle Professional and its support for subgraphs helps a great deal with this .dot file, however it's not perfect as the internal layout of the subgraphs is off since we're not fully supporting the FDP layout type, which is geared towards subgraphs.
