Property Value
Identifier: org.eclipse.elk.force
Meta Data Provider: options.ForceMetaDataProvider

Description

Force-based algorithm provided by the Eclipse Layout Kernel. Implements methods that follow physical analogies by simulating forces that move the nodes into a balanced distribution. Currently the original Eades model and the Fruchterman - Reingold model are supported.

Category: Force

Layout algorithms that follow physical analogies by simulating a system of attractive and repulsive forces. The first successful method of this kind was proposed by Eades in 1984.
