Question

I am using the standard dendrogram layout in D3:

But I would like the child nodes to be fixed to the position of their “generation”, so for instance, vis.visualization would appear at the same X coordinate as vis.operator and, similarly, operator.IOperator would appear directly beneath operator.Label.

The Node-Link Tree does it this way, so maybe I’ll find the answer there:

Right, there’s a layout that does just this…
