Hi,

I have been using Zest in Eclipse 3.7 for developing Eclipse plugin. I use Zest to visualize my data. My data is Tree with semantic Node. So Instead of using default node implementation by Zest, I create my custom Node by implementing IFigureProvider and set it to the setLabelProvider method of Zest GraphViewer.
Currently, for small data set, the visualization seems fine. But for large data, it is horrible, because the nodes are overlapping each others.
You can look the screenshot, I attached 2 version: "small_data_set" and "large_data_set".

So I wanna know, how to solve this problem. I think the problem because of there are no minimal length of graphical connection (arrow figure). So the arrow's length is set to zero if there are too much data. The second problem I think is, the viewport of GraphView. If I can precompute the minimal width and height of the graphView takes, then I can set the bound of the view. But I don't know a thing about Zest, since the documentation is not there.
