Automatic layout in Angular Diagram component

7 Sep 202324 minutes to read

Diagram provides support to auto-arrange the nodes in the diagram area that is referred as Layout. It includes the following layout modes:

Layout modes

  • Hierarchical layout
  • Organization chart
  • Radial tree
  • Symmetric layout
  • Mind Map layout
  • Complex hierarchical tree layout

Hierarchical layout

The hierarchical tree layout arranges nodes in a tree-like structure, where the nodes in the hierarchical layout may have multiple parents. There is no need to specify the layout root. To arrange the nodes in a hierarchical structure, specify the layout type as hierarchical tree.

Note: If you want to use hierarchical tree layout in diagram, you need to inject HierarchicalTree in the diagram.

The following example shows how to arrange the nodes in a hierarchical structure.

import { Component, OnInit, ViewEncapsulation, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { DiagramComponent, Diagram, NodeModel, ConnectorModel, SnapSettingsModel, LayoutModel, DataSourceModel, TextModel, DecoratorModel, ShapeStyleModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams';
import { DataManager, Query } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';

    </ejs-diagram>`,
    encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
export class AppComponent {
    @ViewChild("diagram")
    public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
    public snapSettings?: SnapSettingsModel;
    public items?: DataManager;
    public layout?: LayoutModel;
    public dataSourceSettings?: DataSourceModel;
    //Initializes data source
    public data: object[] = [{
            Name: "Steve-Ceo"
        },
        {
            Name: "Kevin-Manager",
            ReportingPerson: "Steve-Ceo"
        },
        {
            Name: "Peter-Manager",
            ReportingPerson: "Steve-Ceo"
        },
        {

            strokeColor: 'none',
            strokeWidth: 2,
            bold: true,
            color: 'white'
        };
        obj.borderColor = 'white';
        obj.width = 100;
        obj.height = 40;
        obj.backgroundColor = '#6BA5D7';
        obj.borderWidth = 1;
        (obj.shape as TextModel).margin = {
            left: 5,
            right: 5,
            top: 5,
            bottom: 5
        };
        return obj;

            strokeWidth: 2
        };
        (((connector as ConnectorModel).targetDecorator as DecoratorModel).style as ShapeStyleModel).fill = '#6BA5D7';
        (((connector as ConnectorModel).targetDecorator as DecoratorModel).style as ShapeStyleModel).strokeColor = '#6BA5D7';
        connector.type = 'Orthogonal';
        return connector;
    }
    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.snapSettings = {
            constraints: 0
        }
        this.items = new DataManager(this.data as JSON[], new Query().take(7));

Radial tree layout

The radial tree layout arranges nodes on a virtual concentric circle around a root node. Sub-trees formed by the branching of child nodes are located radially around the child nodes. This arrangement result in an ever-expanding concentric arrangement with radial proximity to the root node indicating the node level in the hierarchy. The layout root property can be used to define the root node of the layout. When no root node is set, the algorithm automatically considers one of the diagram nodes as the root node.

To arrange nodes in a radial tree structure, set the type of the layout as RadialTree.

Note: If you want to use radial tree layout in diagram, you need to inject DataBinding and RadialTree in the diagram.

The following code illustrates how to arrange the nodes in a radial tree structure.

Organizational Chart

An organizational chart is a diagram that displays the structure of an organization and relationships. To create an organizational chart, the type of layout should be set as an OrganizationalChart.

The following code example illustrates how to create an organizational chart.

Organizational chart layout starts parsing from root and iterate through all its child elements. The getLayoutInfo method provides necessary information of a node’s children and the way to arrange (direction, orientation, offsets, etc.) them. The arrangements can be customized by overriding this function as explained.

GetLayoutInfo - Set chart orientations, chart types, and offset to be left between parent and child nodes by overriding the method, diagram.layout.getLayoutInfo. The getLayoutInfo method is called to configure every subtree of the organizational chart. It takes the following arguments.

The following table illustrates the properties that “options” argument takes.

Property Description Default Value
options.assistants By default, the collection is empty. When any of the child nodes have to be set as Assistant, you can remove from children collection and have to insert into assistants collection. Empty array
options.orientation Gets or sets the organizational chart orientation. SubTreeOrientation.Vertical
options.type Gets or sets the chart organizational chart type. For horizontal chart orientation:SubTreeAlignments.Center and for vertical chart orientation:SubTreeAlignments.Alternate
options.offset Offset is the horizontal space to be left between parent and child nodes. 20 pixels applicable only for vertical chart orientations.
options.hasSubTree Gets whether the node contains subtrees. Boolean
options.level Gets the depth of the node from layout root. Number
options.enableRouting By default, connections are routed based on the chart type and orientations. This property gets or sets whether default routing is to be enabled or disabled. true
options.rows Sets the number of rows on which the child nodes will be arranged. Applicable only for balanced type horizontal tree. Number

The following table illustrates the different chart orientations and chart types.

Orientation Type Description Example
Horizontal Left Arranges the child nodes horizontally at the left side of the parent. Horizontal Left
  Right Arranges the child nodes horizontally at the right side of the parent. Horizontal Right
  Center Arranges the children like standard tree layout orientation. Horizontal Center
  Balanced Arranges the leaf level child nodes in multiple rows. Horizontal Balanced
Vertical Left Arranges the children vertically at the left side of the parent. Vertical Left
  Right Arranges the children vertically at the right side of the parent. Vertical Right
  Alternate Arranges the children vertically at both left and right sides of the parent. Vertical Alternate

The following code example illustrates how to set the vertical right arrangement to the leaf level trees.

Symmetric layout

The symmetric layout has been formed using nodes position by closer together or pushing them further apart. This is repeated iteratively until the system comes to an equilibrium state.

The layout’s springLength defined as how long edges should be, ideally. This will be the resting length for the springs. Edge attraction and vertex repulsion forces to be defined by using layout’s springFactor, the more sibling nodes repel each other. The relative positions do not change any more from one iteration to the next. The number of iterations can be specified by using layout’s maxIteration.

Note: If you want to use symmetric layout in diagram, you need to inject SymmetricLayout in the diagram.

Mind Map layout

A mind map is a diagram that displays the nodes as a spider diagram organizes information around a central concept. To create mind map, the type of layout should be set as MindMap.

To create a Mindmap Layout using Angular Diagram, refer to the below video link,

Tree Orientation in layout

An Orientation of a MindMapTreeLayout is used to arrange the tree layout according to a specific direction. By default, the orientation is set to Horizontal. The following table outlines the various orientation types available:

## Complex hierarchical tree Complex hierarchical tree layout is the extended version of the hierarchical tree layout. The child had been two or more parents. To create a complex hierarchical tree, the [`type`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/layout) of layout should be set as `ComplexHierarchicalTree`. The following code example illustrates how to create a complex hierarchical tree.

>Note: If you want to use Complex hierarchical layout in diagram, you need to inject ComplexHierarchicalTree in the diagram. ### Line Distribution Line distribution is used to arrange the connectors without overlapping in automatic layout. In some cases, the automatic layout connectors connecting to the nodes will be overlapped with one another. So user can decide whether the segment of each connector from a single parent node should be same point or different point. The [`connectionPointOrigin`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/connectionPointOrigin/#connectionpointorigin) property of layout is used to enable or disable the line distribution in layout. By default connectionPointOrigin will be `SamePoint`. The following code example illustrates how to create a complex hierarchical tree with line distribution. >Note: If you want to use line distribution in diagram layout, you need to inject LineDistribution module in the diagram.

### Linear Arrangement Linear arrangement is used to linearly arrange the child nodes in layout, which means the parent node is placed in the center corresponding to its children. When line distribution is enabled, linear arrangement is also activated by default. The [`arrangement`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/childArrangement/#childarrangement) property of layout is used to enable or disable the linear arrangement in layout. By default arrangement will be `Nonlinear`. >Note: If you want to use linear arrangement in diagram layout, you need to inject LineDistribution module in the diagram. Linear arrangement is applicable only for complex hierarchical tree layout. The following code illustrates how to allow a linear arrangement in diagram layout. ```typescript @Component({ selector: "app-container", template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [layout]='layout'></ejs-diagram>`, encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None }) export class AppComponent { public layout: LayoutModel = { type: 'ComplexHierarchicalTree', //To arrange the child nodes in a linear manner arrangement: ChildArrangement.Linear, horizontalSpacing: 40, verticalSpacing: 40, orientation: 'TopToBottom', }; } ``` ### Prevent connectors overlay The below constraints prevents the connector segments overlapping nodes with a complex hierarchical layout. ```typescript @Component({ selector: "app-container", template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [layout]='layout'></ejs-diagram>`, encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None }) export class AppComponent { public layout: LayoutModel = { //this prevents connector segments overlapping enableRouting: true, }; } ``` ## Customize layout Orientation, spacings, and position of the layout can be customized with a set of properties. To explore layout properties, refer to [`Layout Properties`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/layout). ### Layout bounds Diagram provides support to align the layout within any custom rectangular area. For more information about bounds, refer to [`bounds`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/layout). ### Layout alignment The layout can be aligned anywhere over the layout bounds/viewport using the [`horizontalAlignment`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/layout) and [`verticalAlignment`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/layout) properties of the layout. The following code illustrates how to align the layout at the top-left of the layout bounds.

### Layout spacing Layout provides support to add space horizontally and vertically between the nodes. The [`horizontalSpacing`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/layout) and [`verticalSpacing`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/layout) properties of the layout allows you to set the space between the nodes in horizontally and vertically. ### Layout margin Layout provides support to add some blank space between the layout bounds/viewport and the layout. The [`margin`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/layout) property of the layout allows you to set the blank space. The following code illustrates how to set the layout margin.

### Layout orientation The layout orientation can used to arrange the layout based on the direction. there are different orientation types that are defined in the following table. |Orientation|Description| | -------- | ----------- | |TopToBottom|Aligns the layout from top to bottom. All the roots are placed at top of diagram.| |LeftToRight|Aligns the layout from left to right. All the roots are placed at left of diagram.| |BottomToTop|Aligns the layout from bottom to top. All the roots are placed at bottom of the diagram.| |RightToLeft|Aligns the layout from right to left. All the roots are placed at right of the diagram.| Diagram provides support to customize the [`orientation`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/layout) of layout. You can set the desired orientation using layout.orientation. >Note: In the diagram the default orientation is TopToBottom. The following code illustrates how to arrange the nodes in a BottomToTop orientation.

### Fixed node Layout provides support to arrange the nodes with reference to the position of a fixed node and set it to the [`fixedNode`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/layout) of the layout property. This is helpful when you try to expand/collapse a node. It might be expected that the position of the double-clicked node should not be changed.

In the previous example, while expanding/collapsing a node, it is set as fixed node in order to prevent it from repositioning. ### Refresh layout Diagram allows to refresh the layout at runtime. To refresh the layout, refer to [`Refresh layout`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/#dolayout). ### setNodeTemplate The [`setNodeTemplate`](https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/api/diagram/#setnodetemplate) function is provided for the purpose of customizing nodes. It will be called for each node on node initialization. In this function, the node style and its properties can be customized and can bind the custom JSON with node.
