PENDULUM

With the parameter PENDULUM objects can - depending on preceding or succeeding objects - be placed on different layers, so that the flow can be represented in one line.

upon upcount:countVal

Method "Upwards Swinging"; here the objects of one level are oscillated according to the position of preceding objects, that means they are arranged in a "line".countVal specifies the maximum number of iterations and serves to restrict the calculating time in case of very large models.

Hint

If the number of iteration steps is too small this can influence the arrangement quality to its disadvantage. Default value: 10.

dwnon dwncount:countVal

Method "Downwards Swinging", here the objects of one level are oscillated according to the position of succeeding objects, that means they are arranged in a "line".countVal specifies the maximum number of iterations which helps to restrict the calculating time in case of very large models.

Hint

If the number of iteration steps is too small this can influence the arrangement quality to its disadvantage. Default value: 10.

rubband rubcount:countVal

Method "Rubberband", here the objects of one level are oscillated according to the position of the preceding and subsequent objects. countVal specifies the maximum number of iterations serves to restrict the calculating time in case of very large models.

Hint

If the number of iteration steps is too small this can influence the arrangement quality to its disadvantage. Default value: 10.
