Representing branches in protovis

[Pedro Alves]

Hey there.

What's the best strategy to represent branches with protovis? (eg:
http://tr.im/TDgt or http://tr.im/TDgZ)

Do we need to generate N+1 Panels for N branches or is there a simpler
approach?

Have you had a chance to play with the network layouts in 3.2 yet? For example:

The work-in-progress plan is to use panels and lines to render links.
I plan on making a few more changes to network layouts, but they
shouldn't change too much before the 3.2 release.

I did not, but certainly looks good! Thanks
