Description

An algorithm for placing boxes of fixed sizes. Expands boxes horizontally to fill empty whitespace. This algorithm can be used standalone or specifically for {@link CoreOptions.TOPDOWN_LAYOUT}. In this use case it should be set for nodes whose {@link CoreOptions.TOPDOWN_NODE_TYPE} is set to {@link TopdownNodeTypes.PARALLEL_NODE}. This allows topdown layout to give children larger sizes based on their number of children.
