Maybe you can cover building the xml for the backend. By any chance have you built any tools with Coldfusion -- like a query to xml parser that might work well with the roamer? Mark,

What is the best possible way to reach you? Hope to get in touch soon. Till then thanks a lot for a great component. Regards, zia ahmed. Hi Mark,

I hope that the source code will help other developers create something even better. I'll try to keep this blog interesting; I intend to publish other Flex stuff as time permits.

I hope you have fun with it. The code (in ForceDirectedLayout.relax()) tries to avoid doing any work when there hasn't been much motion, but it has a very small threshold. In the next build, which I will release in a few days, you'll be able to control this via a SpringGraph property. I will also change the default so that it doesn't go on for so long. Thanks for pointing this out. Thomas - thanks for the feedback. I hope you have fun with it.

I cannot wait to review the code. Graphing (visualization) algorithms are an obvious deficit within the Flex framework. Your work is a huge step to that type of functionality. Thanks for contributing to the community. FYI, the first thing that struck me was a thought regarding annealing boundaries. In other words, the annealing alogorithm provide for incremental improvements to the node layout. At some point that incremental process should reach a change boundary and "stop" or abort. That would then allow "other" processes to not be impacted by a continually running layout process. This is very impressive… and very cool. I cannot wait to review the code.
