BalloonLayoutParameters

Constructor parameters for a Balloon layout.

Name	Type	Description
absoluteBacked?	boolean	Defaults to false. If true, then the layout will use any position values found in the data for a given vertex.
getChildEdges	ChildEdgesFunction	The function that retrieves child edges for a given vertex. This function defines how the layout walks your data model to generate the output.
getChildVertices?	HierarchicalLayoutChildVerticesFunction<Vertex>	Optional function used to determine the edges to traverse to find children from some node
getRootNode?	(dataSource:DataSource) => Array<Vertex>	Optional. A function that is given the data source instance as argument and is expected to return either a single node/group, or an array of nodes/groups, to use as the root(s) for the layout
groupPadding?	number	Minimum distance between a group of vertices and its neighbours. Defaults to 100 pixels.
height?	number	Optional fixed height for the layout.
ignoreLoops?	boolean	Defaults to true. If a loop is found during the layout it is usually ignored, unless this is set to true.
ignorePorts?	boolean	Defaults to false, meaning that ports are taken into account when figuring the list of edges from some vertex. If you set this to true, ports will be ignored and the layout will only consider edges connected directly to each vertex.
locationFunction?	LocationFunction	Optional function that, given some vertex, can provide the x/y location of the vertex on the canvas
padding?	PointXY	Optional padding to put around the elements.
rootNode?	Array<Vertex>	Optional. Defines the nodes/groups to use as the root of the tree. These may be provided as an array of either a node/group id or a node/group object. If this parameter is not specified and multipleRoots is not false then the layout uses the result(s) of the getRootNode function; otherwise it uses the first node/group found in the dataset.
width?	number	Optional fixed width for the layout.
