Syntax

public class AStarRouter : IExtendedRouter, IRouter

Constructors

AStarRouter(IGraphInternal)

Initializes a new instance of the AStarRouter class.

Declaration
public AStarRouter(IGraphInternal diagram)
Parameters
IGraphInternal diagram

The related diagram.

Properties

AvoidConnectionOverlap

Gets or sets a value which indicates whether the routing algorithm tries to minimize connection overlaps. Default value is False.

Declaration
public bool AvoidConnectionOverlap { get; set; }
Property Value
System.Boolean

AvoidShapes

Gets or sets the avoid shapes property. This property determines if the routing will go around shapes or go through them.

Declaration
public bool AvoidShapes { get; set; }
Property Value
System.Boolean

The avoid shapes.

SegmentOverlapDistance

Gets or sets the distance around a segment in which an overlap is detected. Note: This property has effect only when AvoidConnectionOverlap is True. Default value is 3.

Declaration
public double SegmentOverlapDistance { get; set; }
Property Value
System.Double

SegmentOverlapPenalty

Gets or sets the penalty value for a connection which overlaps another connection. Note: This property has effect only when AvoidConnectionOverlap is True. Default value is 0.75.

Declaration
public double SegmentOverlapPenalty { get; set; }
Property Value
System.Double

ShapeCrossPenalty

Gets or sets the penalty value for a connection which crosses a diagram shapes other than its start or end shape. Note: This property has effect only when AvoidShapes is True. Default value is 1.

Declaration
public double ShapeCrossPenalty { get; set; }
Property Value
System.Double

StartOrEndShapeWallPenalty

Gets or sets the penalty value for a connection which crosses its start or end shape. Default value is 3.

Declaration
public double StartOrEndShapeWallPenalty { get; set; }
Property Value
System.Double

WallOptimization

Gets or sets the wall optimization.

Declaration
public bool WallOptimization { get; set; }
Property Value
System.Boolean

The wall optimization.
