levelsgap

strictness of neato level constraints

type: double, default: 0.0

Specifies strictness of level constraints in neato when mode="ipsep" or mode=hier.

Larger positive values mean stricter constraints, which demand more separation between levels. On the other hand, negative values will relax the constraints by allowing some overlap between the levels.

Valid on:
  • Graphs

Note: neato only.
