notranslate

Whether to avoid translating layout to the origin point

type: bool, default: false

By default, the final layout is translated so that the lower-left corner of the bounding box is at the origin.

This can be annoying if some nodes are pinned or if the user runs neato -n.

To avoid this translation, set notranslate=true.

Valid on:
  • Graphs

Note: neato only.
