Score layout options

Score layout options may be used whenever a conversion from the abstract representation to the graphic representation is required (see the C/C++ library documentation)

Options

• sysDistance:

  a float value to control the distance between systems, expressed in internal units

  default value: 75

• sysDistribution:

  a string value to control the systems distribution. Accepted values are:

  • auto: automatic systems distribution
  • always: force systems distribution
  • never: prevent systems distribution

  default value: “auto”

• sysDistribLimit:

  a float value to control the maximum distance allowed between two systems for automatic distribution mode. Distance is relative to the height of the inner page.

  default value: 0.25 (that is: 1/4 of the page height)

• force:

  a float value to indicate the force value of the Space-Force function. Typical values range from 400 to 1500.

  default value: 750

• spring:

  a float value for the spring parameter. Typical values range from 1 to 5.

  default value: 1.1

• neighborhoodSpacing:

  a boolean string (“yes”|”no”) to tell the engine to use the neighborhood spacing algorithm or not.

  default value: “no”

• optimalPageFill:

  a boolean string (“yes”|”no”) to tell the engine to use the optimal page fill algorithm or not.

  default value: “yes”

Example:

Using jQuery:

$.get('http://guido.server.org/XXX?optimalPageFill="no"&sysDistance=100');

Internals

The layout options correspond to the GuidoLayoutSettings data structure.
