Recently, I have begun using blobs for my own project. It already has many
features I need and the code is very readble (although there could be more
documentation). As these projects are all about give and take, I would
like to make my extensions publicly available. Wher should I send them and
how? Should I use darcs send? (Never worked with it.)
My first extension is about a more flexible placement of node labels:
Instead of just above or below, I need other placements as well. Thus,
I modified the Justify data type to my needs and migrated it to Network.hs.
Now, the following placements are possible, best used with rectangular nodes.
Above
-----------------------------------------
| Top |
| |
| |
LeftBeside|LeftInside Center RightInside|RightBeside
| |
| |
| Bottom |
-----------------------------------------
Below
Especially I need nodes which form boxes around the centered label.
But for this I need a possibility to call (logical)TextExtend from
outside of NetworkView (in the node creation routine). Where do I
get this mystical DC () value??
More to come!
Cheers
Bernd
