Question for Roassal (sizing ..) (part two)

(* I send the other part without finishing it *)

Wouldn't it be nice (useful) if a layout could have a legend easily ?

I mean automatically making a kind of grid layout representing different nodes and edges, with the possibility of telling what they mean ?

Regards

Mathieu

may be a description and a legend that can be displayed in the same or another window.

How about at the same location you have the zoom buttons, have an icon that popups up the legend. Click to create a separate window. Hover for a momentary popup.

Having a way to specific legend yes, it would be interesting.
However, usually understanding a layout is not the most problematic in my opinion. Understanding the metrics and colors of the nodes and edges requires much more effort.

Another reason to have a good legend to explain them :-).
