Automatic arrangement of nodes and groups
For optimal arrangement of objects on the network interactions map, you can use algorithms to automatically change the location (arrangement) of nodes and groups. The following algorithms are provided:
- Radial arrangement.
- Grid-aligned arrangement.
You can use automatic arrangement algorithms for the following objects:
- All displayed nodes and groups at the top level of the hierarchy within the group tree. Automatic arrangement is performed using the
(radial arrangement) button and the 
(grid-aligned arrangement) button on the toolbar located in the left part of the network interactions map display area. - All displayed nodes and groups within the expanded group. Automatic arrangement is performed by using the (radial arrangement) button and (grid-aligned arrangement) button in the expanded group's window header.
- Only selected nodes and collapsed groups. Before performing automatic arrangement, you need to select at least three nodes and/or collapsed groups within the expanded group or at the top level of the hierarchy. To select multiple objects, you can use the mouse to select a rectangular area containing the relevant objects while holding down the SHIFT key, or select the relevant objects with the mouse while holding down the CTRL key. Automatic arrangement is performed using the
(radial arrangement) button and the 
(grid-aligned arrangement) button on the toolbar located in the left part of the network interactions map display area.
After automatic arrangement, nodes and groups are locked (pinned) in their new location. The 
icon appears in these objects. If necessary, you can unpin these objects.
