| Hull | 5 |
Use a smooth contour to wrap a specified set of nodes.
Usage
Hull is used for wrapping a set of nodes, to emphasize the sets or groups in the graph and do not affect the original node positions and the layout. There are three types of hull: round-convex, smooth-convex and bubble. The round-convex type generates a rounded polygon, the smooth-convex configuration generates a closed spline contour and the bubble type generates a smooth concave hull that could avoids nonMembers. The hulls could be updated interactively. In the first example below, the blue one is of bubble type and green is a rounded convex hull. The two hulls listen for node changes and then be updated, so that they always wrap the nodes. In the second example, the red bubble allows its members to be dragged in and out, and its members could be added by right clicking on the canvas. The blue bubble is updated according to node changes. For the complete configuration, please refer to the API documentation: createHull.
