Auto Arrange and Link Mappings GMF 2.1 [message #199373]

Hi,

I migrated my GMF editor to GMF 2.1. Now the "Arrange All" Action is
working let's say the wrong way.
With GMF 2.0 link mappings were arranged in such a way that the source
feature was on top of the target feature...now it is the opposite, i.e.
target feature at the top and source feature at the bottom.

In my opinion its more evident how it was with 2.0. Is this a bug? Or what
was the reason for this change?

Thank you for your help.

Hi again,

This information is important for me...so is there anyone out there who
can tell me why this was changed and if it will stay like this.

Or how can I configure Arrange All to but the Source Features on top of
the Target Features again?

Thank you
Marsha

I do not have a solution but an observation.
Depending upon the number of nodes and relationships between them, I have
seen 'Arrange All' either arrange it in such a way that source/nodes
features are on top and at other times destination feature/nodes are on
the top.
At this point I am guessing that some algorithm kicks in which calculates
the number of relationships and nodes and does its magic.

This is important to me also so will post results when I have a solution.
