TreeMapControl.LayoutAlgorithm Property

Gets or sets a layout algorithm for arranging TreeMap items.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraTreeMap

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraTreeMap.v24.1.UI.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.TreeMap

Declaration

C#

[XtraSerializableProperty(XtraSerializationVisibility.Hidden)]
public ITreeMapLayoutAlgorithm LayoutAlgorithm { get; set; }

VB.NET

<XtraSerializableProperty(XtraSerializationVisibility.Hidden)>
Public Property LayoutAlgorithm As ITreeMapLayoutAlgorithm

Property Value

Type	Description
ITreeMapLayoutAlgorithm	An object of a class implementing the ITreeMapLayoutAlgorithm interface.

Example

To change the layout algorithm used by TreeMapControl, specify the TreeMapControl.LayoutAlgorithm property. For all default algorithms, you can configure the fill direction using the TreeMapLayoutAlgorithmBase.Direction.
