Configure layout

Layout The Layout panel provides many options that allow the fine-tuning of the appearance of the TreeMap view. Among the many options, the choice of Algorithm, Rendering, and Labeling are the most useful. The Binary Tree algorithm can be used when the layout stability is important. Slice-and-dice is the original treemap algorithm, Squarified for created tilings whose rectangles are close to a square, Strip and Pivot when the order is important, and Circular for aesthetically-pleasing layouts made of circles. Cushion rendering adds shading to show the hierarchical structure. Labeling allow to control whether labels for enclosing groups should be display above or overlaid over the items composing the group.
