Hi my arrow like following:

Arrow on the red marked is glutinous.
How do I divide it?

In your situation fastest fix would be to add nodesep = 0.15 graph attribute (right after digraph { statement). This attribute adjusts the minimal distance between the nodes in one rank. This results in:
Also you may play with headport and tailport attributes, as I suggested in the comment. Shortcut for them is to add a colon after node when you are defining edge.
If you replace TR_Client_Data -> idle with TR_Client_Data -> idle:e you will get this result:
Edges are crossed, but they are apart.
Also I've noticed that you define node attributes in a wrong way: keyword node defines global attributes for all nodes in the graph (or subgraph). If you want to specify attributes for a single node, place them after node definition.
e.g.
WRONG:
node [
shape = point,
fontsize = 12
] start_point;
CORRECT:
start_point [
shape = point,
fontsize = 12
];

In my Graphviz graph (written in DOT), I want each node to have a label, but in addition to that, I want some nodes to have a small caption denoting some other unique value for that node. For example, if this were for a history diagram, a node's label might be something like "Birth of George Washington" and the caption might read "See also: American Revolution."
This is fairly flexible, so the caption doesn't necessarily need to be inside the node, but I do need some other way of putting text that clearly isn't part of the label (e.g. is a different size, possibly a different color) and is in a different location but is still clearly a part of the node.
Is there any way to do this?
To place captions outside the node, you may use xlabel:
digraph g {
forcelabels=true;
a [label="Birth of George Washington", xlabel="See also: American Revolution"];
b [label="Main label", xlabel="Additional caption"];
a-> b;
}
forcelabels=true makes sure no xlabel is omitted.
A second option is to use HTML-like labels:
digraph g {
a[label=<Birth of George Washington<BR />
<FONT POINT-SIZE="10">See also: American Revolution</FONT>>];
}
So far I tried this line but dot keeps pushing it aside making room for my nodes (pushes it to the right):
_diagram_info [shape="plaintext", label="My Diagram\l", fontsize=13]
Is there a way to center the label by pos, using dot?
That's how I'd add a title for a graph:
digraph {
// nodes, edges, subgraphs
...
// title
labelloc="t";
label="My Diagram";
}
This will add a centered title to the top of the graph.
The same syntax can also be used for subgraphs.
Before asking, I tried to search the answer for my question, buf I couldn't find.
My question is about changing edge direction in dot diagram. Rankdir is 'LR', but in certain part of graph, I want to use 'TB'. Let me give an example.
digraph G {
rankdir=LR;
size="7,5";
browser->ui_thread;
browser->db_thread;
browser->webkit_thread;
browser->cache_thread;
browser->file_thread;
browser->io_thread;
io_thread[style=filled];
cache_thread[style=filled];
ui_thread->thread[label=inherit];
ui_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
db_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
webkit_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
cache_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
file_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
io_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
}
it gives out graph like this
But, this is not what I want.
I want the following image. "thread" is above "ui_thread" vertically.
You may think it can be solved easily using "rankdir=same" with "thread" and "ui_thread".
I sure tried this already. but I failed. "thread" is always below "ui_thread".
thanks,
Unfortunately, graph direction can only be specified once, and the whole graph stays in that direction. In this situation, you can usually get the desired effect with a combination of constraint=false and invisible edges to force some ordering.
This code will produce your second image:
digraph G {
rankdir=LR;
size="7,5";
browser->thread[style=invis];
browser->ui_thread;
browser->db_thread;
browser->webkit_thread;
browser->cache_thread;
browser->file_thread;
browser->io_thread;
io_thread[style=filled];
cache_thread[style=filled];
ui_thread->thread[label=inherit constraint=false];
ui_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
db_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
webkit_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
cache_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
file_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
io_thread->messageloop[style=dotted];
}
I need to print a large number of graphs using Graphviz DOT. To distinguish which input each graph corresponds to, I want to also have a caption for each graph. Is there anyway to embed this into the DOT representation of the graphs.
You can use label to add a caption to the graph.
Example:
digraph {
A -> B;
label="Graph";
labelloc=top;
labeljust=left;
}
labelloc and labeljust can be used to determine top/bottom and left/right position of the graph label.
All the details and other attributes that can be used to modify the label (font etc) in the graphviz attribute reference.
Tip: Define the graph label end of your dot file, otherwise subgraphs will inherit those properties.
Graph's can have attributes just like nodes and edges do:
digraph {
graph [label="The Tale of Two Cities", labelloc=t, fontsize=30];
node [color=blue];
rankdir = LR;
London -> Paris;
Paris -> London;
}
That dot file produces this graph.
If you are looking for a way to add a caption to a Graph object of graphviz in python. Then the following code can help:
from graphviz import Graph
dot = Graph()
dot.node('1','1')
dot.node('2','2')
dot.edge('1','2', label="link")
dot.attr(label="My caption")
dot.attr(fontsize='25')
dot.render(view=True)
Output:
When I changed the rankdir of my graph from LR to TD, my record nodes also changed their layout direction so they no longer look like a 'record'. I tried applying a separate rankdir to the nodes, but this had no effect.
How does one keep the record nodes with the correct layout?
digraph sample {
graph [rankdir=TD];
node [shape=record];
A [label="ShouldBeTop | ShouldBeBottom"];
B [label="Top | Bottom"];
A -> B;
}
Taking into account that rankdir effectively replaces the notion of "top" and "bottom" for the given graph, that's not surprising.
I am afraid that there is no easy remedy for this, save hacking the source (and that would not be easy at all). You can surround your labels in "{}" with some kind of mass search-replace solution to get the requested effect:
digraph sample { graph [rankdir=TD]; node [shape=record];
A [label="{ShouldBeTop | ShouldBeBottom}"];
B [label="{Top | Bottom}"]; A -> B;
}
You can use html table like labels instead of records. IIRC the table based labels do not rotate with the rank direction. See http://www.graphviz.org/doc/info/shapes.html#html
