Hi All,
Yes indeed, I am very interested in this. Well, I already hacked together a
way to display lines of opposite directions, but if this concept could be
generalized and integrated into Roassal (by someone with better knowledge
of Roassal then me :)), that would be very cool.
What I did is I created the class QSLine which has a offset property. This
property simple offsets the line from its attachment point.
In my layout builder (QSVisualizer), I go through all edges and bundle them
together as "bundled edges" by looking at all sources and destinations.
If such a bundle has more than one edge (meaning it has two edges going in
opposite directions to the same two nodes), I offset the lines of these
edges in opposite directions. This has to be done outside of QSLine, since
the lines don't and shouldn't know if they have a "twin".
All of the code can be found in the Quicksilver-UI Package.
Quicksilver can be loaded in the following way:
*Gofer new*
* smalltalkhubUser: 'Quicksilver' project: 'Quicksilver';*
* package: 'ConfigurationOfQuicksilver';*
* load.*
*ConfigurationOfQuicksilver loadDefault.*
*
*
The code where I bundle the edges together and offset them, can be found in:
*
*
*QSVisualizer:**edgesFor: nodes view: view*
*
*
QSLine can also be found in the Quicksilver-UI Package. It is a subclass
of ROLine.
*
*
Cheers,
Dennis

Yes, I think
it would be better to display 2->2 lines.
Currently we cannot render 2->2 lines, but it would not be complicated to
add a particular line shape for this.
How do you mean "special shape"? Would it work in this example?:
---
view shape rectangle size: 20.
view nodes: #(1 2 3 4 5).
view shape line color: Color green.
view edgesToAll: #(1 2 3 4 5).
view circleLayout.
---
So every node will have 4 green edges to other node and 1 green edge to
itself.
I think we should also consider that in that
example we cannot see two
lines: one 1->2 and other 2->1. Should we take care
of it and instead of
two direct lines use, for example, bezier lines with different
configuration?
I agree that ideally we should be able to see two lines 1->2 and 2->1.
Currently we cannot because we do not have the appropriate shapes for this.
I think user should see it.
Yes. There is several way to do this. As Softwarenaut does, is to have an
offset.
By the way, scg guys, you never asked for such a thing? Now is a good
moment for shouting :-)

But we could imagine a special shape that draw such edges.

I think there is no visualisation support for such edges.
