ELK Force
Identifier: org.eclipse.elk.force
Meta Data Provider: properties.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.
