Listener for Layout calls

[Jan Bot]

Hi all,

is there a way in Cytoscape to listen for layout events? I'd like my
plugin to remember which layout was performed last by the user so that
when the plug-in adds nodes the same layout can be performed.

Kind regards,

Hi Jan,
Actually, the layout is already saved as part of the network
attributes. Just have your plugin look for the network attribute
"__layoutAlgorithm". It's a string attribute and it will contain the
name of the layout.

Hi Scooter,

thanks, that works for most cases. However, it fails for yFiles layouts.
Is it true that the yFiles layouts do not update the __layoutAlgorithm
attribute?
