ag_layout

Module ag_layout provides the definition of the functions layoutGraph(), and layoutDoc() for automatically organizing the nodes in a graph or all graphs in a document respectively.

class autograph.ag_layout.NodesToKeepEnum

Bases: object

Enumeration of what nodes to keep when laying out a graph

KEEP_ALL_NODES= 0 
KEEP_COMPUTED_NODES= 1 
KEEP_COMPUTED_AND_INPUT_NODES= 2

class autograph.ag_layout.GUIElementsToKeepEnum

Bases: object

Enumeration treatments of gui elements when laying out a graph

KEEP_ALL= 0 
KEEP_NONE= 1 
KEEP_NON_EMPTY= 2

class autograph.ag_layout.GraphFlowDirectionEnum

Bases: object

Enumeration layout directions for graphs

RIGHTWARD= 0 
UPWARD= 1

class autograph.ag_layout.GraphLayoutAlignment

Bases: object

Enumeration what side of a graph to align when laying out a graph

OUTPUTS= 0 
INPUTS= 1

autograph.ag_layout.layoutGraph(graph, aNodeSpacing=160, aNodeShift=(80, 0), nodesToKeep=0, layoutAlignment=0, commentsToKeep=0, framesToKeep=0, navigationPinsToKeep=0)

Lays out a graph

Parameters:

Parameters:	graph (`SBSDynamicValue` or `SBSGraph` or `SBSFunction` or `SBSParamsGraph` or :class:.`MDLGraph`) – graph to layout aNodeSpacing (int) – distance to keep between nodes when laying them out aNodeShift (tuple of int) – Start position for the laid out graph nodesToKeep (`NodesToKeepEnum`) – What nodes to keep in the graph layoutAlignment (`GraphLayoutAlignment`) – Enum selecting whether to traverse from inputs or outputs commentsToKeep (`GUIElementsToKeepEnum`) – Whether to delete or keep comments framesToKeep (`GUIElementsToKeepEnum`) – Whether to delete or keep frames navigationPinsToKeep (`GUIElementsToKeepEnum`) – Whether to delete or keep navigation pins
Returns:	None

graph (SBSDynamicValue or SBSGraph or SBSFunction or SBSParamsGraph or :class:.`MDLGraph`) – graph to layout
aNodeSpacing (int) – distance to keep between nodes when laying them out
aNodeShift (tuple of int) – Start position for the laid out graph
nodesToKeep (NodesToKeepEnum) – What nodes to keep in the graph
layoutAlignment (GraphLayoutAlignment) – Enum selecting whether to traverse from inputs or outputs
commentsToKeep (GUIElementsToKeepEnum) – Whether to delete or keep comments
framesToKeep (GUIElementsToKeepEnum) – Whether to delete or keep frames
navigationPinsToKeep (GUIElementsToKeepEnum) – Whether to delete or keep navigation pins

Returns:

None

autograph.ag_layout.layoutDoc(sbsDoc, aNodeSpacing=160, aNodeShift=(80, 0), nodesToKeep=0, layoutAlignment=0, commentsToKeep=0, framesToKeep=0, navigationPinsToKeep=0)

Layout all graphs in an sbs document

Parameters:

Parameters:	sbsDoc – Document to layout aNodeSpacing (int) – distance to keep between nodes when laying them out aNodeShift (tuple of int) – Start position for the laid out graphs nodesToKeep (`NodesToKeepEnum`) – What nodes to keep in the graph layoutAlignment (`GraphLayoutAlignment`) – Enum selecting whether to traverse from inputs or outputs commentsToKeep (`GUIElementsToKeepEnum`) – Whether to delete or keep comments framesToKeep (`GUIElementsToKeepEnum`) – Whether to delete or keep frames navigationPinsToKeep (`GUIElementsToKeepEnum`) – Whether to delete or keep navigation pins
Returns:	None

sbsDoc – Document to layout
aNodeSpacing (int) – distance to keep between nodes when laying them out
aNodeShift (tuple of int) – Start position for the laid out graphs
nodesToKeep (NodesToKeepEnum) – What nodes to keep in the graph
layoutAlignment (GraphLayoutAlignment) – Enum selecting whether to traverse from inputs or outputs
commentsToKeep (GUIElementsToKeepEnum) – Whether to delete or keep comments
framesToKeep (GUIElementsToKeepEnum) – Whether to delete or keep frames
