The problem is that the logic depends on setting the parent to have extensible size. Instead, in the case of the blueprint, it should be the responsibility of the layout to grow the parent as needed without actually making the parent to be extensible. This is why in Mondrian the layout could be set to stretch.

I have tried to change it and I have reached other problem. If the lines are on top, I cannot move (or it is almost impossible) with nodes below (in case of many lines pass over a node). And for now I do not know how to solve it. I have removed all the interactions of edges, but it does not work.
