NAME¶
graphviz - rich set of graph drawing tools
SYNOPSIS¶
This manpage has been written to fulfil the need of a centralized documentation
presenting all available tools in the graphviz package.
Graph layout programs¶
- dot
- filter for hierarchical layouts of graphs
- neato
- filter for symmetric layouts of graphs
- twopi
- filter for radial layouts of graphs
- circo
- filter for circular layout of graphs
- fdp
- filter for symmetric layouts of graphs
All of the filters work with either directed or undirected graphs, though
dot is typically used for directed graphs and
neato for
undirected graphs. Note also that
neato -n[2] can be used to render
layouts produced by the other filters.
Graph drawing programs¶
- lefty
- A Programmable Graphics Editor
- lneato
- lefty + neato
- dotty
- lefty + dot
Graph layout enhancement¶
- gvcolor
- flow colors through a ranked digraph
- unflatten
- adjust directed graphs to improve layout aspect ratio
- gvpack
- merge and pack disjoint graphs
- gc
- count graph components
- acyclic
- make directed graph acyclic
- nop
- pretty-print graph file
- ccomps
- connected components filter for graphs
- sccmap
- extract strongly connected components of directed graphs
- tred
- transitive reduction filter for directed graphs
- dijkstra
- single-source distance filter
- bcomps
- biconnected components filter for graphs
- gvpr
- graph pattern scanning and processing language
- prune
- prune directed graphs
Other¶
- gxl2dot, dot2gxl
- GXL-DOT converters

documentation effort by Joachim Berdal Haga <jbh@lupus.ig3.net>. It can
be distributed under the same terms as the graphviz package.
