SpringStiffness Method

In This Topic

Returns the stiffness of the spring representing the GoLayoutForceDirectedLink link. The to and from nodes of link L are acted upon by a force of magnitude SpringStiffness(L) * (GetNodeDistance(L.from, L.to) - SpringLength(L)).

Syntax

protected virtual float SpringStiffness( 
   GoLayoutForceDirectedLink link
)

Parameters

link

Return Value

Returns the stiffness of the spring representing link, normally the value of DefaultSpringStiffness, unless the value of GoLayoutForceDirectedLink.Stiffness had already been set, in which case it just returns that value.

Remarks

Very small positive numbers are normal. Values larger than that tend to cause "jittery" behavior that makes it hard or impossible to settle down, since no stable state can be found.
