Re: [igraph] Trees generations?

[Marco]

Dear Tamas,

I was using the layout_fruchterman_reingold(), and it 'looks' really nice.

The only thing is that this layout doesn't seem to care too much about
overlapping edges, and with big trees it becomes hard to understand
the nodes whereabouts and neighborhood...
So far I haven't figured yet a way to tell this layout to try harder
to avoid overlapping edges, playing with its various parameters.

Thank you, really a lot,

marco
