I really wish Graphviz had some smarter automatic layout algorithms. If I'm not manually laying out the graph, and it isn't one of the select few kinds of graphs that works well, the results are often quite poor.

- graphviz 5y agoSpecifically which new algorithms would you like to see? A difficulty is that implementation is harder than a typical student project, and we need some decent developer documentation.
