Configure Auto Adapt Label Behavior

Creates a configuration object for the auto-adapt-label behavior in G6. This behavior automatically adjusts label positions to reduce overlapping and improve readability in the graph visualization.

Usage

auto_adapt_label(
  key = "auto-adapt-label",
  enable = TRUE,
  throttle = 100,
  padding = 0,
  sort = NULL,
  sortNode = list(type = "degree"),
  sortEdge = NULL,
  sortCombo = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

key

Unique identifier for the behavior (string, default: "auto-adapt-label").

enable

Whether to enable this behavior (JS function, default: returns TRUE for all events).

throttle

Throttle time in milliseconds to optimize performance (numeric, default: 100).

padding

Padding space around labels in pixels (numeric, default: 0).

sort

Global sorting rule for all element types (list or JS function, default: NULL).

sortNode

Sorting rule specifically for node labels (list, default: list(type = "degree")).

sortEdge

Sorting rule specifically for edge labels (list, default: NULL).

sortCombo

Sorting rule specifically for combo labels (list, default: NULL).

...

Extra parameters. See https://g6.antv.antgroup.com/en/manual/behavior/auto-adapt-label.

Sorting parameters determine which labels take priority when space is limited:

• When sort is provided, it applies to all element types and overrides type-specific settings

• Type-specific sorting (sortNode, sortEdge, sortCombo) only applies when sort is NULL

• The default sorting for nodes is by degree (higher degree nodes' labels are shown first)

Value

A list with the configuration settings for the auto-adapt-label behavior.

Examples

# Basic configuration with defaults
config <- auto_adapt_label()

# Custom configuration with more padding and custom throttle
config <- auto_adapt_label(
  key = "my-label-adapter",
  throttle = 200,
  padding = 5
)


# Using a custom enable function
config <- auto_adapt_label(
  enable = JS("(e) => e.targetType === 'node'")
)
