The Basic Link Style Layout is a common base class of all layouts algorithms that offer no complex link shapes. It offers only the link styles "straight links" and "no link reshape" for the regular links. It offers common options, for handling multiple links between the same pair of nodes, and for handling self-links that start and end at the same node.
While the main purpose of IlvBasicLinkStyleLayout is to serve as a base class for some other layout algorithms, the Basic Link Style Layout can also be used by itself. In this case, it does not place any nodes, but it can route certain links. Links between different node pairs can be routed as straight lines. Multiple links between different node pairs can be routed as shifted bundle of straight links, or as bundle with one bend point. Self-links that start and end at the same node can be routed in a rectangular or square style (or, if spline links are used, as approximation of a circle).

Here are sample drawings produced with the Basic Link Style Layout algorithm:

See the corresponding chapter of the JViews Graph Layout User's Manual for details on the algorithm, the types of graphs for which this algorithm can be used, the features and limitations, code samples, parameters, and so on.

    setMultiLinkMode(int), Constant Field Values
  - STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE
```
public static final int STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE

  - NARROW_STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE
```
public static final int NARROW_STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE
```
    Multilink mode: narrow straight bundling. When used as an argument of setMultiLinkMode(int), multiple links between the same pair of nodes are routed straight but shifted to avoid overlaps. The bundle may appear more narrow since the shift offset is limited by the size of the end nodes.
    
    See Also:
    
    setMultiLinkMode(int), Constant Field Values
  - CONNECTED_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE
```
public static final int CONNECTED_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE
```
    Multilink mode: one bend polyline bundling with connection. When used as an argument of setMultiLinkMode(int), multiple links between the same pair of nodes are routed with one bend to avoid overlaps. All links of the bundle are connected to the node and start at the same point and end at the same point.
    
    See Also:
    
    setMultiLinkMode(int), Constant Field Values
  - FREE_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE
```
public static final int FREE_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE
```
    Multilink mode: one bend polyline bundling without enforced connection. When used as an argument of setMultiLinkMode(int), multiple links between the same pair of nodes are routed with one bend to avoid overlaps. The link connection points are not enforced, that is, the nodes and links are free to decide themselves where to place the connection points. There is no guarantee that all links of the bundle start or end at a common point. This mode is in particular useful if an IlvCenterLinkConnector or IlvPinLinkConnector is used that cannot change the connection point, or when an IlvClippingLinkConnector is used while the attachment point should not change.

  - CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR
```
public static final int CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR
```
    Self-link mode: rectangular self-links with 3 bends and connection. When used as an argument of setSelfLinkMode(int), 3 bends are added to self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). The bends are placed in orthogonal style so that the link segments approximately resemble three quarters of a rectangle (the fourth quarter being the node where the self-link is attached). The connection points are placed on the border of the node.

When used as an argument of setSelfLinkMode(int), 3 bends are added to self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). The bends are placed at the same position like CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR. The link connection points are not enforced, that is, the nodes and links are free to decide themselves where to place the connection point. This mode is in particular useful if an IlvCenterLinkConnector or IlvPinLinkConnector is used that cannot change the connection point.

  - CONNECTED_SQUARE
```
public static final int CONNECTED_SQUARE
```
    Self-link mode: square self-links with 3 bends and connection. When used as an argument of setSelfLinkMode(int), 3 bends are added to self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). The bends are placed in orthogonal style so that the link segments approximately resemble three quarters of a square (the fourth quarter being the node where the self-link is attached). If the self-link is a spline link, the square shape might be more appropriate than a rectangular shape since the spline then may approximately resemble three quarters of a circle. The connection points are placed on the border of the node.

  - NARROW_CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR
```
public static final int NARROW_CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR
```
    Self-link mode: narrow rectangular self-links with 3 bends and connection. When used as an argument of setSelfLinkMode(int), 3 bends are added to self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). The bends are placed in orthogonal style so that the link segments approximately resemble three quarters of a rectangle (the fourth quarter being the node where the self-link is attached). The connection points are placed on the border of the node. For single self-links, this mode has the same effect like CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR. If you have multiple self-links at the same node, the self-links are shifted by an offset to avoid overlaps. In this case, this mode differs from CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR, as the self-link bundle may appear more narrow since the shift offset of the multiple self-links is limited by the size of the end node.

  - IlvBasicLinkStyleLayout
```
public IlvBasicLinkStyleLayout(IlvBasicLinkStyleLayout source)
```
    Creates a new layout instance by copying an existing one. This constructor is used by the copy() method. Any subclass should provide a copy constructor.
    The parameters of the source layout are copied using the method copyParameters(IlvGraphLayout).
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - The layout instance that is copied.
    
    See Also:
    
    copy(), copyParameters(IlvGraphLayout)
- Method Detail
  - init
```
protected void init()
```
    Initializes instance variables.
    You should not call this method directly. The method is called internally by the constructor without arguments and by the copy constructor. The method must be overridden by subclasses that need to initialize additional instance variables.
    
    Overrides:
    
    init in class IlvGraphLayout
  - copy
```
public IlvGraphLayout copy()
```
    Copies the layout instance.
    This method copies the layout instance by calling the copy constructor.
    When performing a recursive layout of a nested graph, this method is used by IlvLayoutProvider to "clone" the layout instance of a parent graph.
    Note that the parameters which are specific to a node or a link are not copied. The other parameters, including the customization interfaces, are also copied. A copy of the layout instance used for laying out the connected components is set on the new instance.
    If a method of the type supportsXXX is associated with a parameter, the parameter is copied only if the corresponding method returns true.
    
    Specified by:
    
    copy in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Returns:
    
    A copy of the layout instance.
  - copyParameters
```
public void copyParameters(IlvGraphLayout source)
```
    Copies the parameters from a given layout instance.
    Note that the parameters which are specific to a node or a link are not copied. The other parameters, including the customization interfaces, are also copied. A copy of the layout instance used for laying out the connected components is set on this layout instance.
    If a method of the type supportsXXX is associated with a parameter, the parameter is copied only if the corresponding method returns true.
    
    Overrides:
    
    copyParameters in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - The layout instance from which the parameters are copied.

  - supportsPreserveFixedNodes
```
public final boolean supportsPreserveFixedNodes()
```
    Indicates that this layout class allows the user to specify fixed nodes. Fixed nodes are not positioned during the layout if the method IlvGraphLayout.setPreserveFixedLinks(boolean) is called with a true argument. The base class IlvBasicLinkStyleLayout does not move any nodes anyway, hence specifying nodes as fixed is not necessary. All subclasses of this class however move nodes, and specifying nodes as fixed for a subclass can be useful.
    
    Overrides:
    
    supportsPreserveFixedNodes in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Returns:
    
    Always true.
    
    See Also:
    
    IlvGraphLayout.setPreserveFixedNodes(boolean), IlvGraphLayout.isPreserveFixedNodes()
  - supportsPreserveFixedLinks
```
public final boolean supportsPreserveFixedLinks()
```
    Indicates that this layout class allows the user to specify fixed links. Fixed links are not reshaped during the layout if the method IlvGraphLayout.setPreserveFixedLinks(boolean) is called with a true argument.
    
    Overrides:
    
    supportsPreserveFixedLinks in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Returns:
    
    Always true.

  - supportsAllowedTime
```
public boolean supportsAllowedTime()
```
    Indicates that this layout class can stop the layout computation when the user-defined allowed time is exceeded. The result code in the layout report is IlvGraphLayoutReport.STOPPED_AND_INVALID in this case. Subclasses may return a different result code if the method getLayoutCodeOnInterrupt() is overridden.
    
    Overrides:
    
    supportsAllowedTime in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Returns:
    
    Always true.

  - supportsStopImmediately
```
public boolean supportsStopImmediately()
```
    Indicates that this layout class can interrupt the current run of the layout immediately in a controlled way. The result code in the layout report is IlvGraphLayoutReport.STOPPED_AND_INVALID in this case. Subclasses may return a different result code if the method getLayoutCodeOnInterrupt() is overridden.
    
    Overrides:
    
    supportsStopImmediately in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Returns:
    
    Always true.

  - supportsLayoutOfConnectedComponents
```
public final boolean supportsLayoutOfConnectedComponents()
```
    Indicates that this layout class can cut the attached graph into connected components, apply itself to each connected component separately, and then use the layout instance returned by the method IlvGraphLayout.getLayoutOfConnectedComponents() to position the connected components. By default, this layout is an instance of IlvGridLayout which can be customized as needed.
    
    Overrides:
    
    supportsLayoutOfConnectedComponents in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Returns:
    
    Always true.
    
    See Also:
    
    IlvGraphLayout.getLayoutOfConnectedComponents(), IlvGraphLayout.isLayoutOfConnectedComponentsEnabled(), IlvGraphLayout.performLayout(boolean, boolean)
  - supportsLinkConnectionBox
```
public final boolean supportsLinkConnectionBox()
```
    Indicates that this layout class can use a link connection box interface to calculate the end points of a link. The link connection box interface is an object that provides the rectangle to which the links are connected for each node and the tangential shift offset at each side for the connection points.
    The connection box interface is only used if the link style is straight line. It is used when the option "connect links to node centers" (see isConnectLinksToNodeCenters()) or the link clipping (see IlvGraphLayout.setLinkClipInterface(ilog.views.graphlayout.IlvLinkClipInterface)) is enabled. It is used for multilink bundles unless the multilink mode is NO_BUNDLE or FREE_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE. It is used for self-links if the self-link mode is CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR, NARROW_CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR, CONNECTED_SQUARE, or NARROW_CONNECTED_SQUARE. In all other cases, the layout algorithms does not actively place the end points of links, hence it is not used. In that cases, it relies on the link connectors that are attached to the nodes to find appropriate connection points for the links.
    When the connection box interface is used, the layout algorithm calculates the virtual center of the end nodes of each link by the link connection box interface and routes the links relative to those centers. It then obtains the final connection points by clipping with the link clip interface. The virtual center is defined as the center of the connection box shifted by the average of the tangential "top" and "bottom" offsets in the horizontal direction, and by the average of the tangential "left" and "right" offsets in the vertical direction. For instance, if the tangential offset is 20 at the top side and 10 at all other sides, the average shift offset is (20 + 10)/2 = 15 in the horizontal direction and (10 + 10)/2 = 10 in the vertical direction; hence, the virtual center is at connectionBox.center() + (15, 10).
    
    Overrides:
    
    supportsLinkConnectionBox in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Returns:
    
    Always true.

  - supportsLinkClipping
```
public final boolean supportsLinkClipping()
```
    Indicates that this layout class can use a link clip interface to clip the end points of a link. The link clip interface is an object that provides the connection for a link clipped at the border of the shape of the end node. This is useful if the nodes have a nonrectangular shape such as a triangle, rhombus, or circle.
    Link clipping is performed only if the link style is straight line.
    
    Overrides:
    
    supportsLinkClipping in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Returns:
    
    Always true.

```
    Indicates that this layout class can estimate the percentage of completion during the layout run.

    Returns:
    
    Always true.

  - supportsSaveParametersToNamedProperties
```
public final boolean supportsSaveParametersToNamedProperties()
```
    Indicates that this layout class can transfer the layout parameters to named properties. This mechanism can be used if layout parameters must be stored persistently in an .ivl file.
    
    Overrides:
    
    supportsSaveParametersToNamedProperties in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Returns:
    
    Always true.

  - layout
```
protected void layout(boolean redraw)
               throws IlvGraphLayoutException
```
    Computes the layout using the Basic Link Style Layout algorithm. To start the layout, call the method IlvGraphLayout.performLayout(). Subclasses should not override this method but should override internalLayout(boolean) instead.
    
    Specified by:
    
    layout in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Parameters:
    
    redraw - If true, the attached graph model will be asked to redraw the graph after layout. When the layout algorithm moves the nodes and reshapes the links, it is required to pass the value of the redraw argument to the methods IlvGraphModel.moveNode(java.lang.Object, double, double, boolean) and IlvGraphModel.reshapeLink(java.lang.Object, ilog.views.IlvPoint, ilog.views.IlvPoint[], int, int, ilog.views.IlvPoint, boolean).
    
    Throws:
    
    IlvInappropriateLinkException - if the grapher contains links that cannot be reshaped to a straight line and the link style is STRAIGHT_LINE_STYLE. (For details, see IlvInappropriateLinkException.)
    
    IlvGraphLayoutException - If an unusual situation occurs. WARNING: this method can throw one of the subclasses of IlvGraphLayoutException. Specifically, it can throw an IlvInappropriateGraphException. It can also throw an IlvInappropriateLinkException when inappropriate types of links and/or link connectors are used in an IlvGrapher. For details, refer to the documentation of these exception classes.

    Called from layout(boolean) to place the nodes. This layout does not place any nodes, but subclasses of this layout may place nodes in this method.
    
    Throws:
    
    IlvGraphLayoutException
  - getSelfLinksCount
```
protected final int getSelfLinksCount()
```
    Returns the number of self-links. Can be used by subclasses inside internalLayout(boolean) to test how many self-links have to be treated.
    
    Returns:
    
    The number of self-links.
  - getMultiLinksCount
```
protected final int getMultiLinksCount()
```
    Returns the number of multilinks. Can be used by subclasses inside internalLayout(boolean) to test how many multilinks have to be treated.

```
protected int[] getPercentagesOfCompletion()
```
    Returns an array of 4 integer numbers, denoting the percentage of completion for each of the 4 steps. The steps are the following:
    1. After collecting multilinks and self-links.
    2. After calling internalLayout(boolean).
    3. After treating all multilinks.
    4. After treating all self-links.
    This method can be overridden by subclasses.
    Returns:
    
    An array of 4 integer numbers, denoting the percentage of completion.
    
    See Also:
    
    supportsPercentageComplete(), IlvGraphLayoutReport.getPercentageComplete()
  - increasePercentageComplete
```
public void increasePercentageComplete(int newPercentage)
```
    Increases the percentage of completion that is stored in the layout report to the input value. Layout algorithms that support the percentage complete feature should call this method during the running of the layout. This method does not set the percentage to a lower value than the previous value. It also does not set the value to more than 100%. It silently ignores wrong input values.
    
    Overrides:
    
    increasePercentageComplete in class IlvGraphLayout
    
    Parameters:
    
    newPercentage - New percentage of completion
    
    See Also:
    
    supportsPercentageComplete(), IlvGraphLayoutReport.getPercentageComplete()
  - setLinkStyle
```
public void setLinkStyle(int style)
```
    Sets the style of the shape of the links. Valid values are STRAIGHT_LINE_STYLE (the links are given a straight-line shape) and NO_RESHAPE_STYLE (no reshape is performed on the links).
    This feature can be useful if the graph contains links that have intermediate points and are not straight-line links, for instance, IlvPolylineLinkImage links with intermediate points.
    The default value is STRAIGHT_LINE_STYLE.
    Note that when the graph attached to the layout is of type IlvGrapher, the effect of the link reshaping depends on the type of the links and the connectors installed at the node. For link style NO_RESHAPE_STYLE, the link type and connector type does not really matter, since the link shape is not changed in any way. For STRAIGHT_LINE_STYLE, we recommend using links of type IlvPolylineLinkImage and as link connector IlvClippingLinkConnector. This link type and this connector works in all cases. In combination with the IlvClippingLinkConnector, enabling the option setConnectLinksToNodeCenters(boolean) is useful.
    If link clipping (see IlvGraphLayout.setLinkClipInterface(ilog.views.graphlayout.IlvLinkClipInterface)) is enabled, then IlvFreeLinkConnector might be appropriate as well. In that case, other link or connector types may cause an IlvInappropriateLinkException during layout. You can use the method IlvGraphLayoutUtil.EnsureAppropriateLinks(ilog.views.graphlayout.IlvGraphModel, ilog.views.graphlayout.IlvLayoutProvider) before layout or when the exception is caught to convert all links and link connectors to an appropriate type. However, if link clipping is disabled, then IlvFreeLinkConnector or IlvPinLinkConnector do usually not produce aesthetic results, while in that case IlvCenterLinkConnector or no link connector might be appropriate. Which link connector is appropriate depends also on the multilink mode (see setMultiLinkMode(int)).
    
    Parameters:
    
    style - The link style value.
    
    See Also:
    
    getLinkStyle()
  - getLinkStyle
```
public int getLinkStyle()
```
    Returns the current option for the style of the shape of the links.
    
    See Also:
    
    setLinkStyle(int)
  - setConnectLinksToNodeCenters
```
public void setConnectLinksToNodeCenters(boolean enable)
```
    Sets whether the algorithm connects the links to the centers of the nodes. This expertoption has only an effect if the link style is not NO_RESHAPE_STYLE and link clipping is not enabled, that is, if IlvGraphLayout.getLinkClipInterface() returns null. If the argument is true, the links are connected to the center of the nodes. If a link connection box is set, it uses the virtual center of the connection box instead of the center of the bounding boxes of the end nodes. The virtual center is defined as the center of the connection box shifted by the average of the tangential "top" and "bottom" offset in the horizontal direction and by the average of the tangential "left" and "right" offset in the vertical direction. For instance, if the tangential offset is 20 at the top side and 10 at all other sides, the average shift offset is (20 + 10)/2 = 15 in the horizontal direction and (10 + 10)/2 = 10 in the vertical direction; hence the virtual center is at connectionBox.center() + (15, 10).
    
    Note that when the graph attached to the layout is of type IlvGrapher, the effect depends on the type of the link connectors installed at the node. This option is mainly useful for the IlvClippingLinkConnector. It can also be enabled with the IlvFreeLinkConnector. Other link connector types may cause an IlvInappropriateLinkException during layout if this option is enabled. You can use the method IlvGraphLayoutUtil.EnsureAppropriateLinks(ilog.views.graphlayout.IlvGraphModel, ilog.views.graphlayout.IlvLayoutProvider) before layout or when the exception is caught to convert all links and link connectors to an appropriate type.
    The default value is false.

public boolean isConnectLinksToNodeCenters()

    See Also:
    
    setConnectLinksToNodeCenters(boolean)
  - setMultiLinkMode
```
public void setMultiLinkMode(int mode)
```
    Sets the mode how multiple links between the same pair of nodes are laid out. Valid values are:
    - NO_BUNDLE - no bundling. Multiple links between the same pair of nodes are not spread out and will overlap.
    - STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE - straight line bundling. Multiple links between the same pair of nodes are routed as straight lines but shifted relative to each other to avoid overlaps. Different to the narrow mode, the shift offset is not limited by the node size.
    - NARROW_STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE - narrow straight line bundling (the default). Multiple links between the same pair of nodes are routed as straight lines but shifted relative to each other to avoid overlaps. The bundle may appear more narrow since the shift offset is limited by the size of the end nodes.
    - CONNECTED_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE - one bend polyline bundling with connection. Multiple links between the same pair of nodes are routed with one bend to avoid overlaps. All links of the bundle are connected to the node and start at the same point and end at the same point.
    - FREE_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE - one bend polyline bundling without enforced connection. Multiple links between the same pair of nodes are routed with one bend to avoid overlaps. The link connection point is not enforced, that is, the node and link are free to decide themselves where to place the connection point. There is no guarantee that all links of the bundle start or end at a common point. This mode is in particular useful if an IlvCenterLinkConnector or IlvPinLinkConnector is used that cannot change the connection point, or when an IlvClippingLinkConnector is used while the attachment point should not change.
    This feature is only useful if the graph contains pairs of nodes that have multiple links in between. If has only an effect when the link style is not NO_RESHAPE_STYLE.
    Note that when the graph attached to the layout is of type IlvGrapher, the effect of the link reshaping depends on the type of the links and the connectors installed at the node. We recommend using links of type IlvPolylineLinkImage and as link connector IlvClippingLinkConnector. This link type and this connector works in all cases. In combination with the IlvClippingLinkConnector, enabling the option setConnectLinksToNodeCenters(boolean) is useful.
    
    If the link bundle mode is STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE, NARROW_STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE or CONNECTED_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE, then IlvFreeLinkConnector might be appropriate as well. In that case, other link or connector types may cause an IlvInappropriateLinkException during layout. You can use the method IlvGraphLayoutUtil.EnsureAppropriateLinks(ilog.views.graphlayout.IlvGraphModel, ilog.views.graphlayout.IlvLayoutProvider) before layout or when the exception is caught to convert all links and link connectors to an appropriate type. However, if the link bundle mode is FREE_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE, then the IlvCenterLinkConnector or no link connector might be appropriate.
    Parameters:
    
    mode - The multilink mode value.
    
    See Also:
    
    getMultiLinkMode(), setLinkStyle(int)
  - getMultiLinkMode

    See Also:
    
    setMultiLinkMode(int)
  - setMultiLinkOffset
```
public final void setMultiLinkOffset(double offset)
```
    Sets the offset between multiple links between the same pair of nodes. If the multilink mode is STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE or NARROW_STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE, it is the offset between the the multiple straight line links. If the multilink mode is CONNECTED_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE or FREE_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE, it is the offset between the bends that are added to the multiple links to avoid that those links overlap. If the multilink mode is NO_BUNDLE, the offset has no effect.
    The straight links, or the multilink bends, respectively, are shifted relative to each other by the multilink offset unless the number of links times the offset exceeds the max spread value. In that case, the offset is limited by the max spread value. If the multilink mode is NARROW_STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE, the offset is further limited by the node size.
    
    This offset affects only links that are no self-links. See setMultiSelfLinkOffset(double) for the same parameter at self-links.
    
    The default value is 10.
    
    Parameters:
    
    offset - The offset value.

    See Also:
    
    setMultiLinkOffset(double), setMultiLinkMode(int)
  - setMultiLinkMaxSpread
```
public final void setMultiLinkMaxSpread(double maxSpread)
```
    Sets the maximum spread width between multiple links between the same pair of nodes.
    If the multilink mode is STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE or NARROW_STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE, the multiple straight line links are shifted relative to each other to avoid overlaps. If the multilink mode is CONNECTED_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE or FREE_ONE_BEND_BUNDLE, bends are added to the multiple links to avoid that those links overlap. The straight links, or the multilink bends, respectively, are shifted relative to each other by the multilink offset unless the number of links times the offset exceeds the max spread value. In that case, the offset is limited by the max spread value. If the multilink mode is NARROW_STRAIGHT_LINE_BUNDLE, the offset is further limited by the node size. If the multilink mode is NO_BUNDLE, the maximum spread width has no effect.
    
    This maximum spread width affects only links that are no self-links. See setMultiSelfLinkMaxSpread(double) for the same parameter at self-links.
    
    The default maximum spread value is 50.
    
    Parameters:
    
    maxSpread - The maximum spread value.

  - setSelfLinkMode
```
public void setSelfLinkMode(int mode)
```
    Sets the mode how self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node) are laid out. Valid values are:
    - NO_BENDS - no reshape. Self-links are not reshaped with bends and may not be visible after layout.
    - CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR - rectangular self-links with 3 bends and connection. Self-links are reshaped with 3 bends placed in orthogonal style so that the link segments approximately resemble three quarters of a rectangle (the fourth quarter being the node where the self-link is attached). The connection points are placed on the border of the node.
    - FREE_RECTANGULAR - rectangular self-links with 3 bends without enforced connection. Self-links are reshaped with 3 bends placed at the same position like CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR. However, the link connection points are not enforced, that is, the nodes and links are free to decide themselves where to place the connection point. Since the connection point is not enforced, the link segments in free rectangular mode may not be orthogonal. This mode is in particular useful if an IlvCenterLinkConnector or IlvPinLinkConnector is used that cannot change the connection point.
    - CONNECTED_SQUARE - square self-links with 3 bends and connection. Self-links are reshaped with 3 bends placed in orthogonal style so that the link segments approximately resemble three quarters of a square (the fourth quarter being the node where the self-link is attached). If the self-link is a spline link, the square shape might be more appropriate than a rectangular shape since the spline then may approximately resemble three quarters of a circle. The connection points are placed on the border of the node.
    - FREE_SQUARE - square self-links with 3 bends without enforced connection. Self-links are reshaped with 3 bends placed at the same position like CONNECTED_SQUARE. If the self-link is a spline link, the square shape might be more appropriate than a rectangular shape since the spline then may approximately resemble three quarters of a circle. However, the link connection points are not enforced, that is, the nodes and links are free to decide themselves where to place the connection point. Since the connection point is not enforced, the link segments in free rectangular mode may not be orthogonal. This mode is in particular useful if an IlvCenterLinkConnector or IlvPinLinkConnector is used that cannot change the connection point.
    - NARROW_CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR - narrow rectangular self-links with 3 bends and connection (default). Self-links are reshaped with 3 bends placed in orthogonal style so that the link segments approximately resemble three quarters of a rectangle (the fourth quarter being the node where the self-link is attached). The connection points are placed on the border of the node. For single self-links, this mode has the same effect like CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR. If you have multiple self-links at the same node, the self-links are shifted by an offset to avoid overlaps. In this case, this mode differs from CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR, as the self-link bundle may appear more narrow since the shift offset of the multiple self-links is limited by the size of the end node.
    - NARROW_FREE_RECTANGULAR - narrow rectangular self-links with 3 bends without enforced connection. Self-links are reshaped with 3 bends placed at the same position like NARROW_CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR. For single self-links, this mode has the same effect like FREE_RECTANGULAR. If you have multiple self-links at the same node, the self-links are shifted by an offset to avoid overlaps. In this case, this mode differs from FREE_RECTANGULAR, as the self-link bundle may appear more narrow since the shift offset of the multiple self-links is limited by the size of the end node. The link connection points are not enforced, that is, the nodes and links are free to decide themselves where to place the connection point. Since the connection point is not enforced, the link segments in free rectangular mode may not be orthogonal. This mode is in particular useful if an IlvCenterLinkConnector or IlvPinLinkConnector is used that cannot change the connection point.
    - NARROW_CONNECTED_SQUARE - narrow square self-links with 3 bends and connection. Self-links are reshaped with 3 bends placed in orthogonal style so that the link segments approximately resemble three quarters of a square (the fourth quarter being the node where the self-link is attached). If the self-link is a spline link, the square shape might be more appropriate than a rectangular shape since the spline then may approximately resemble three quarters of a circle. The connection points are placed on the border of the node. For single self-links, this mode has the same effect like CONNECTED_SQUARE. If you have multiple self-links at the same node, the self-links are shifted by an offset to avoid overlaps. In this case, this mode differs from CONNECTED_SQUARE, as the self-link bundle may appear more narrow since the shift offset of the multiple self-links is limited by the size of the end node.
    - NARROW_FREE_SQUARE - narrow square self-links with 3 bends without enforced connection. Self-links are reshaped with 3 bends placed at the same position like NARROW_CONNECTED_SQUARE. If the self-link is a spline link, the square shape might be more appropriate than a rectangular shape since the spline then may approximately resemble three quarters of a circle. For single self-links, this mode has the same effect like FREE_SQUARE. If you have multiple self-links at the same node, the self-links are shifted by an offset to avoid overlaps. In this case, this mode differs from FREE_SQUARE, as the self-link bundle may appear more narrow since the shift offset of the multiple self-links is limited by the size of the end node. The link connection points are not enforced, that is, the nodes and links are free to decide themselves where to place the connection point. Since the connection point is not enforced, the link segments in free square mode may not be orthogonal. This mode is in particular useful if an IlvCenterLinkConnector or IlvPinLinkConnector is used that cannot change the connection point.
    This feature is only useful if the graph contains any self-links. If has only an effect when the link style is not NO_RESHAPE_STYLE.
    Note that when the graph attached to the layout is of type IlvGrapher, the effect of the link reshaping depends on the type of the links and the connectors installed at the node. We recommend using links of type IlvPolylineLinkImage and as link connector IlvClippingLinkConnector. This link type and this connector works in all cases. In combination with the IlvClippingLinkConnector, enabling the option setConnectLinksToNodeCenters(boolean) is useful.
    
    If the self-link mode is CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR, CONNECTED_SQUARE, NARROW_CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR, or NARROW_CONNECTED_SQUARE, then IlvFreeLinkConnector might be appropriate as well. In that case, other link or connector types may cause an IlvInappropriateLinkException during layout. You can use the method IlvGraphLayoutUtil.EnsureAppropriateLinks(ilog.views.graphlayout.IlvGraphModel, ilog.views.graphlayout.IlvLayoutProvider) before layout or when the exception is caught to convert all links and link connectors to an appropriate type. However, if the link bundle mode is FREE_RECTANGULAR, FREE_SQUARE, NARROW_FREE_RECTANGULAR, or NARROW_FREE_SQUARE, then the IlvCenterLinkConnector or no link connector might be appropriate.
    Parameters:
    
    mode - The mode for self-links.
    
    See Also:
    
    getSelfLinkMode(), setLinkStyle(int)
  - getSelfLinkMode
```

  - setSelfLinkOrientation
```
public void setSelfLinkOrientation(int orientation)
```
    Sets the orientation of self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). Valid values are:
    - CLOCK_WISE - clockwise (default).
    - COUNTER_CLOCK_WISE - counterclockwise.
    - HORIZONTAL_TO_VERTICAL - horizontal to vertical. Self-links start at the left or right side of the node with a horizontal segment and end at the top or bottom side of the node with a vertical segment.
    - VERTICAL_TO_HORIZONTAL - vertical to horizontal. Self-links start at the top or bottom side of the node with a vertical segment and end at the left or right side of the node with a horizontal segment.
    This feature is only useful if the graph contains any self-links. If has only an effect when the link style is not NO_RESHAPE_STYLE and the self-link mode is not NO_BENDS.

  - setSelfLinkAllowedCorners
```
public void setSelfLinkAllowedCorners(int corners)
```
    Sets which corners are allowed to have self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). The default value is ALL_CORNERS, that is, a combination of all the possible values:
    - TOP_LEFT: top left corner.
    - TOP_RIGHT: top right corner.
    - BOTTOM_RIGHT: bottom right corner.
    - BOTTOM_LEFT: bottom left corner.
    Parameters:
    corners - A bitwise-Or combination of the following values:
    
    TOP_LEFT: top left corner.
    
    TOP_RIGHT: top right corner.
    
    BOTTOM_RIGHT: bottom right corner.
    
    BOTTOM_LEFT: bottom left corner.
    
    or the value ALL_CORNERS.

  - getSelfLinkAllowedCorners
```
public final int getSelfLinkAllowedCorners()
```
    Returns which corners are allowed to have self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). The default value is all the corners, that is, a combination of all the possible values.
    Returns:
    A bitwise-Or combination of the following values:
    
    TOP_LEFT: top left corner.
    TOP_RIGHT: top right corner.
    BOTTOM_RIGHT: bottom right corner.

  - setSelfLinkSpacing
```
public final void setSelfLinkSpacing(double spacing)
```
    Sets the minimal spacing between node border and self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). If the self-link mode is NO_BENDS, the offset has no effect.
    If the spacing is negative, the spacing is calculated automatically. This is in particular useful for the self-link modes CONNECTED_SQUARE and NARROW_CONNECTED_SQUARE in combination with spline links, to form approximate circle shapes for the self-links.
    
    The default value is 5.
    
    Parameters:
    
    spacing - The spacing value.
    
    See Also:
    
    getSelfLinkSpacing(), setSelfLinkMode(int)
  - getSelfLinkSpacing
```
public final double getSelfLinkSpacing()
```
    Returns the minimal spacing between node border and the self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node).
    
    See Also:
    
    setSelfLinkSpacing(double), setSelfLinkMode(int)
  - setSelfLinkRelativeAttachPosition
```
public final void setSelfLinkRelativeAttachPosition(IlvPoint position)
```
    Sets the relative attach position at the node border for self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). The x value of the position specifies a point at the top or bottom border of the node, and the y value of the position specifies a point at the left or right border of the node. The relative attach position is expressed as a fraction of the width and height of the node bounding box. Self-links occur at a corner of the node, and the relative position is specified with respect to this corner. For instance, the attach position (0.5, 0.1) specifies the middle of the top or bottom side and a point that is one tenth of the node height away from the corner of the self-link at the left or right side. If the self-link occurs at the bottom right corner, it goes from the middle of the bottom side, to a point at the right side that is 10% away from that corner. The attach position (0.0, 0.0) specifies exactly the corresponding corner. The attach position (1.0, 1.0) specified the, in each direction, opposite corners, that is, if the self-link occurs at the bottom right corner, it goes from the bottom left corner to the top right corner. Such extreme values are perhaps not useful; they are mentioned only to illustrate the meaning of the relative position. The coordinate range for useful values is approximately between 0.1 and 0.5 for the relative position.
    If the self-link mode is CONNECTED_SQUARE, NARROW_CONNECTED_SQUARE, FREE_SQUARE, or NARROW_FREE_SQUARE, then the attach position is only respected at one side and calculate on the other side to form a square.
    
    The real attach position is the sum of the relative attach position and the absolute attach position.
    
    The default value of the relative attach position is (0.5, 0.5).
    
    Parameters:
    
    position - The relative attach position for self-links.

  - getSelfLinkRelativeAttachPosition
```
public final IlvPoint getSelfLinkRelativeAttachPosition()
```
    Returns the relative attach position at the node border for self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). The relative attach position is expressed as a fraction of the width and height of the node bounding box. Self-links occur at a corner of the node, and the relative position is specified with respect to this corner.
    
    See Also:
    
    setSelfLinkRelativeAttachPosition(IlvPoint), setSelfLinkMode(int)
  - setSelfLinkAbsoluteAttachPosition
```
public final void setSelfLinkAbsoluteAttachPosition(IlvPoint position)
```
    Sets the absolute attach position at the node border for self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node). The x value of the position specifies a point at the top or bottom border of the node, and the y value of the position specifies a point at the left or right border of the node. The absolute attach position is expressed as absolute coordinate units. Self-links occur at a corner of the node, and the relative position is specified with respect to this corner. For instance, if the self-link occurs at the bottom right corner, the attach position (10, 20) specifies that the self-link goes from 10 units away from the corner at the bottom side (that is, x = node.x + node.width - 10) to 20 units away from the corner at the right side (that is, y = node.y + node.height - 20).
    
    If the self-link mode is CONNECTED_SQUARE, NARROW_CONNECTED_SQUARE, FREE_SQUARE, or NARROW_FREE_SQUARE, then the attach position is only respected at one side and calculate on the other side to form a square.
    
    The real attach position is the sum of the relative attach position
    
    The real attach position is the sum of the relative attach position and the absolute attach position.
    
    The default value of the absolute attach position is (0, 0).
    
    Parameters:
    
    position - The absolute attach position for self-links.

  - setSelfLinkConnectToNodeCenter
```
public final void setSelfLinkConnectToNodeCenter(boolean enable)
```
    Sets whether self-links (that is, links that start and end at the same node) connect towards the node center. This is disabled by default. It has only an effect for the self-link modes CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR, NARROW_CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR, CONNECTED_SQUARE, or NARROW_CONNECTED_SQUARE. If disabled, the self-link segments incident to the node border are orthogonal to the node border. If enabled, the self-link segments are rotated to point towards the node center.
    
    Parameters:
    
    enable - Whether the option is enabled.

    setSelfLinkConnectToNodeCenter(boolean), setSelfLinkMode(int)
  - setMultiSelfLinkDistribution
```
public void setMultiSelfLinkDistribution(int distribution)
```
    Sets the distribution of bundles of multiple self-links (that is, multiple links that start and end at the same node). Self-link bundles form essentially nested rectangles or circles. There is a reference point at the node border and this reference point is either in the middle of the bundle, or at the outermost circle or at the innermost cicle. Valid values are:
    - CENTERED - centered (default). The middle of a bundle of multiple self-links is attached at the reference points for self-links. The nested circles are equally spread out towards the inner nesting and towards the outer nesting.
    - OUTER - towards outer nestings. The innermost self-link of a bundle of multiple self-links is attached at the reference points for self-links and the remaining self-links are distributed towards the outer of the nestings.
    - INNER - towards inner nestings. The outermost self-link of a bundle of multiple self-links is attached at the reference points for self-links and the remaining self-links are distributed towards the inner of the nestings.
    This feature is only useful if the graph contains bundles of multiple self-links. If has only an effect when the link style is not NO_RESHAPE_STYLE and the self-link mode is not NO_BENDS.
    Parameters:
    
    distribution - The distribution mode for multiple self-links.

    getMultiSelfLinkDistribution(), setLinkStyle(int), setSelfLinkMode(int)
  - getMultiSelfLinkDistribution
```
public int getMultiSelfLinkDistribution()
```

    See Also:
    
    setMultiSelfLinkDistribution(int)
  - setMultiSelfLinkOffset
```
public final void setMultiSelfLinkOffset(double offset)
```
    Sets the offset between multiple self-links (that is, multiple links that start and end at the same node).
    If the self-link mode is not NO_BENDS, bends are added to self-links. If there are multiple self-links at the same node, the bends are shifted relative to each other by the multiple self-link offset unless the number of self-links times the offset exceeds the multiple self-link max spread value. In that case, the offset is limited by the max spread value. If the self-link mode is NARROW_CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR, NARROW_CONNECTED_SQUARE, NARROW_FREE_RECTANGULAR, or NARROW_FREE_SQUARE, the offset is further limited by the node size. If the self-link mode is NO_BENDS, the offset has no effect.
    
    This offset affects only self-links, no other multilinks. See setMultiLinkOffset(double) for the same parameter at other multilinks.
    
    The default value is 10.
    
    Parameters:
    
    offset - The offset value.

  - setMultiSelfLinkMaxSpread
```
public final void setMultiSelfLinkMaxSpread(double maxSpread)
```
    Sets the maximum spread width between multiple self-links (that is, multiple links that start and end at the same node).
    If the self-link mode is not NO_BENDS, bends are added to self-links. If there are multiple self-links at the same node, the bends are shifted relative to each other by the multiple self-link offset unless the number of self-links times the offset exceeds the max spread value. In that case, the offset is limited by the max spread value. If the self-link mode is NARROW_CONNECTED_RECTANGULAR, NARROW_CONNECTED_SQUARE, NARROW_FREE_RECTANGULAR, or NARROW_FREE_SQUARE, the offset is further limited by the node size. If the self-link mode is NO_BENDS, the maximum spread width has no effect.
    
    This maximum spread width affects only self-links, no other multilinks. See setMultiLinkMaxSpread(double) for the same parameter at other multilinks.
    
    The default maximum spread value is 50.
    
    Parameters:
    
    maxSpread - The maximum spread value.
