Diagram nodes not bunching up on left hand side

[Steve]

Hi

I'm drawing a diagram and the nodes on the left hand side are not as bunched up as those on the right side. Is there a way to change this.

See attached,

Hi Steve, 

 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support. 

 

Please confirm us whether you need to render node in left side which has the child count is greater than the right side of the node (please refer to the below screenshot)? If so, we will validate your requirement once you have confirmed.

If we misunderstood your requirement, please share us more information about your requirement such as details of how you are expected to render the layout in diagram control?

Hi

So on the diagram you will notice that where I have indicated with the blue scribble the gap between the right edge of 3.1.1.2.3 and the left edge of 3.1.1.1.1 is wider than that of 3.2.1.1.1.2 and 3.2.1.1.2.1

Also 3.1.1.1 is further away from 3.1.1 and 3.1.1.2.1

It's almost as though the left most nodes have been drawn to far to the left.

I've pasted another example

Both those in red show gaps that are wider than those in blue.

So nodes 3.1.1.1 and 3.1 need to be 'nudged' to the right, thus closing the gap

Hope this helps.

Hi Steve, 

 

We have considered it as an issue with “Spacing problem in updating the Hierarchical layout” and we will include this issue in our main release volume 3 which will available in mid of September, 2018. 

 

However, we suggest you use DirectedTreeLayoutManager instead of HierarchicalLayoutManager to achieve your requirement if you are not using  multiple parent layout in your project.

Hi 

That has fixed it DirectedTreeLayoutManager works fine. I will never need a requirement for multiple parents. It maybe that if you have this, then the 'bug' would  not be replicated.

Thanks
