Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	generateLayout() Generates the Layout.
boolean	getAutoscaleNodes() If set to true, subflow nodes in the given workflow are automatically scaled to fit their contents.
boolean	getDebug() If set to true, debugging output will be printed in the command line.
boolean	getRecursive() If set to true, the layout is applied to all subflows of the given workflow recursively.
VFlowModel	getWorkflow() Returns the workflow to be laid out.
void	setAutoscaleNodes(boolean pautoscaleNodes) If set to true, subflow nodes in the given workflow are automatically scaled to fit their contents.
void	setDebug(boolean pdebug) If set to true, debugging output will be printed in the command line.
void	setRecursive(boolean precursive) If set to true, the layout is applied to all subflows of the given workflow recursively.
void	setWorkflow(VFlowModel pworkflow) Sets the workflow to be laid out.
