Hello,
Indeed, this feature request of tree layout, where it can be specified
if the children are displayed horizontally or vertically, has been
identified in the past, but it has not been implemented yet. It was
asked (way) before Sirius was contributed to Eclipse, and no bugzilla
(feature request) has been reported yet.
Regards,
Steve

Thanks for your reply. The result i want is indeed very similar to a tree layout, but im not making a tree perse. If i could enabling both a horizontal and vertical tree layout of the edge in one diagram, not only one, i would be very much on my way. The tree layout however limits the line architecture somewhat.
What it basicly comes down to is; if both lines come from the same point on the diagram and go to the same target it should be only one line.
Am i able to make a feature request myself?
Maybe there is some other way, for example splitting the target up in two representations. connect both edges to one of the representation and connect both representations with a different edge. this could be an option because the target in my situation is just a channel. But it seems not possible to make multiple representations of the same object?
for example:
all idea's are welcome

What you can try is use a Ordered Tree Layout or Composite Layout (there
is a left to right option), that can be added under the Diagram
description in your VSM. This way your edges pointing the same parent
will appear as fused. Then you can define a custom layout, using an
extension point, to choose how the element are placed in the diagram .
You can check this previous post
https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/639946/1234795/#msg_1234795
for more information on custom layout. You may not be able to define
exactly the configuration you presented, but something close.

You can define as many Node/Container/Edge mapping as you want for the
same metaclass. The semantic element will be represented multiple time.
More generally, the way you define your mappings doesn't have to reflect
the structure of the metamodel.
