splines=ortho not working about viz-js HOT 8 CLOSED

I have the same issue. Hope to have the fix soon.

from viz-js.

I can confirm that "splines=ortho" does not work:
https://stamm-wilbrandt.de/Viz.js/form10/?1439462733206#digraph%20Orthogonal%20%7B%0A%20%20layout%3Ddot%0A%20%20graph%20%5Blabel%3D%22Orthogonal%20edges%22%2C%20splines%3Dortho%2C%20nodesep%3D0.8%5D%0A%20%20node%20%5Bshape%3Dbox%5D%0A%20%20a-%3E%7Bb%20c%7D%0A%20%20b-%3E%7Bd%20e%7D%0A%20%20c-%3E%7Bf%20g%7D%0A%7D

According this thread support for ortho is in graphviz in all versions from September 28, 2010 and newer:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8939973/graphviz-library-rectangle-style-edges-instead-of-curves

Surprisingly Viz.js reports from itself in generated SVG output that it is based on later version:
<!-- Generated by graphviz version 2.28.0 (20110507.0327)
-->

So something is wrong with current Viz.js (that has the advantage of supporting 10 layout engines compared to "just dot" in previous Viz.js, see 1st link).

The example in the Stack Overflow post now renders as expected.

Thank you. I wanted to try but cannot get empscripten setup correctly. Is there a new compiled Viz.js somewhere available online?

Compiled versions are published here: https://github.com/mdaines/viz.js/releases

Thank you, I have 2 followup questions:

I took 1.0.1 viz.js and installed example.html on local webserver.
Accessing by "google-chrome example.html" or "firefox example.html" works perfectly.
But opening via "http://127.0.0.1/.../example.html" (the same file) does not (neither Chrome nor Firefox).
Error message is " Uncaught ReferenceError: Viz is not defined".
Did I do something wrong, or is shipped viz.js/example.html broken?

I can see that orthogonal really works.
Does 1.0.1 viz.js support more than "dot" layout engine as viz.js did previously?
Here is a working past example, you can select 10 engines and all work:

Sorry, (1) seems to be a problem with my local webserver, works on internet:
http://stamm-wilbrandt.de/Viz.js/1.0.1/

Question (2) is still open.

from viz-js.

I've tested these engines:

• dot
• neato
• circo
• twopi
• fdp

I believe osage also works. sfdp is not supported at the moment because of the dependency on GTS.
