Hello everyone, I need to plot a 5K node/edges tree (a company directory) and after many experiments have seen that the Reingold Tilford (RT) layouting gives the best results.
I have tried using iGraph which has this algo but cannot manage to get nice visual results. Also tried exporting the iGraph layout to GraphML and opening it with Gephi but also this does not work well.
Is there a way to get a RT (linear or circular) graph layout with graph-tool?
Thank you VERY much. Keep safe! Robert

There is support for radial tree layout:

If you want support for Reingold-Tilford in particular, please open an issue in the website, and I will implement it when time permits.
Best, Tiago
