We're reluctant to be exposed to too much anger about misfeatures in 20 year old code that was basically a prototype that escaped from the lab, but go ahead, ask us anything. We've gotten a lot of help lately from Magnus Jacobsson, Matthew Fernandez and Mark Hansen on cleaning up the website and the code base, even some persistent bugs we could never find ourselves. Improvements that would benefit the community the m…
I love graphviz and have used it as part of my job for over 15 years. That said, I have spent entirely too much time manually searching through the 100-odd dimensional Graphviz parameter space trying to get aesthetic results. So much time in fact that occasionally it's easier to fire up Omnigraph and draw the thing manually. Graphviz would be ideal if it had some kind of meta-parameter settings that could reduce the…
Re: Create diagrams with code using Graphviz
#221This is an excellent idea. In general, allowing a human to say they would like to expend more machine cycles to search for better renderings would be useful. This would be an interesting summer intern project, It could probably be layered on top of the existing software.
