still quite big though 😅 let me know if you have some request |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Yeah these are too large. I'm looking for diagrams that can be inlined into code. There should be no padding too.
I'm not quite sure how that can be achieved, because the layout engine gives a certain layout with those long lengths of edges. Shortening those edges would lead to overlaps of objects/text. The bounty placed on the issue is reward for solving that problem.

apparently treating it as image processing problem works! However,

@alixander does the size looks reasonable to you? (ignore the missing text/label, it's bug on my side 😂) |
|
The size looks reasonable!
|
It has the caveat that some diagram might get too wide, but sure. |
|
also reasonable to add further constraints as you see fit, e.g. only rectangles |

seems like the layout engine always came up with the optimal width

Hi, @DrSensor is this still being worked on? |
|
Sorry for the long break, currently it work fine and look decent on dagre layout despite it has some silly quirk (only NOTE: It will struggle on complex big diagram that has many vertex line but there is no way around this. the least user can do is try to use other layout. I kinda want to keep this approach instead of limit it to ELK layout. Should I continue or is this good enough? |
|
It's still far too big =(. When you zoom out enough it looks good, but definitely not something people can embed in code editors |
|
can i take a look at ascii.exp.d2? |
|
It was generated with TALA, but ELK will demonstrate it too (trying to just limit it to orthogonal lines). It's the kind of diagram that I think ascii art would be a fit for. Not trivial, not too complex, just boxes and arrows |
