- Star display –When checked, this arranges the circled items so their connections can form a star
pattern.
-
Progressive –When checked, this arranged the circle progressively. Eventually, the progressive
option specifies that the algorithm can be run progressively to find a better solution.
-
Circles –The number of circles to make. The Circle Spacing determines the pixels between
multiple circles.
Declutter
This removes some clutter from an existing display, minimizing the screen real estate consumed by
links. The declutter layout manager spreads objects so that they do not overlap. This handles non-
zoomable objects. As you zoom out, non zoomable objects tend to appear on top of each other.
Declutter calculates the overlaps and spreads the objects apart.
Figure 21-16. Topology View–Declutter Layout
It has the following Declutter Settings :
-

recalculation of the positions of connected entities.
-
