Hi. In my fdp graphs the nodes are sometimes so close together that there’s no line, only the arrow. How do I get them spaced apart better? I tried adding -GK=500 and -Gnodesep=500 without effect.
Thanks,
Delany
I am not an fdp expert, but some guesses:
- Units for both K (K | Graphviz) and nodesep (nodesep | Graphviz) attributes are inches. Try using much smaller values, like .5 (guess)
- Try the sep (sep | Graphviz) attribute. Units are points (1/72 inch)
- Also the len attribute (len | Graphviz) Units are inches
Thanks. The only thing that had any effect was sep. I got what I wanted with -Gsep=+10,10
It might be useful to explore the “overlap” value described in overlap | Graphviz as it states that fdp can run the same overlap removal phase as the other tools.
