Allow adjust layout manually

[donquijotedelamancha]

Current capability of adjusting layout manually by dragging the nodes around is quite limited by tendency of the nodes to rearrange themselves.
In some cases the position of the notes is important (e.g. based on a physical location of objects) and it doesn't seem possible to drag the nodes to stay in fixed locations selected by the user.
Maybe if we set Animations to false that would eliminate the physical laws that move the nodes and completely let the user rearrange their location
The chart is fantastic but without this capability is meaningless for my application.

Hello @donquijotedelamancha, thank you for your feedback.
Could you please send a sample dataset and screenshots to demonstrate how do you want to arrange nodes?

Hi Uve, thanks for your answer.
Find attached a screenshot of a graph i would like to implement based on geographical location of countries. Also find attached the corresponding data xlsx file.
Current force directed graph wont let me arrange the nodes at the locations that correspond to the geographical location. I believe this is because the layout is trying to comply with a fixed distance between nodes. I imagine we could make the gravity and charge parameters in the layout equal to cero but still the distance seems to be a constant which doesn't allow to place the nodes in custom locations.

when can we expect to see this change in production?

Hi @prudhv16
There is no ETA for now, but we had added it to our backlog
