Description:
Release of version 1.0
KGraphViewer is a Graphviz dot graph file viewer
for KDE.
I used, in this program, code from the profiling
tool kcachegrind and from koffice/kexi.
(http://kcachegrind.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/show.cgi/KcacheGrindIndex).
The tool works very well for not huge graphs (<
1000 nodes).
Here are its currently implemented features:
- zooming
- loading of several graphs in tabs;
- saving of the recent files list;
- manual reload of files;
- display of a bird-eye view of the graph;
- moving of the graph by dragging;
- full featured printing;
- closing of the tabs;
- perfect drawing of all graphviz example graphs;
- automaticaly choose dot for directed graphs and
neato for undirected
- possibility to use an arbitrary layout algo as
soon as it produces xdot format
- automatic reloading with user confirmation of
(externaly)
modified files (configurable) ;
- open new instances as new tabs in the old one
(configurable)
- help system
- internationalization (currently eng, fre)
- ...
Kgraphviewer is using the boost/spirit library for
graphs parsing. To avoid
external dependencies, these Boost parts have been
integrated in Kgraphviewer.
See TODO in the distribution for planned features.
As usual, comments, bug reports and any help are
very welcome !
Please report bugs or install problems directly on
the kgraphviewer homepage
and not as comments here. Thanks.

2006/05/24
* changes in config dialog now change the status
of Apply button

2006/05/23
* documentation
2006/05/18
* corrected placing of window position indicator
(red line) in bird eye view
when zooming

2006/05/17
* corrected drawing errors appearing when
dragging after a zoom by updating
Qt to 3.3.6
2006/05/16
* all graphviz example graphs are perfectly
drawn
* corrected drawing of parallel edges
* corrected edges geometry definition (tips
appear at wrong places)
2006/05/15
* corrected loading of edges bounds labels
* correct handling of record shaped nodes (see
graphviz examples, compare with doted results)
* corrected handling of fonts (see graphviz
examples, compare with doted results)

2006/05/14

loading after N vertices or edges (N currently set
to 1000)
2006/05/13

visible even when zooming a
lot (min size or big bold point)
2006/05/12
* added hard-coded min and max zoom factors
* scrolling with mouse wheel
* make minimum canvas size to window size

becomes larger than itself
2006/05/07

the image if any ;
2006/04/11
* Added support for a new dot attribute:
shapefile, allowing to define nodes content by an

opened files)
* context menu to use other layouting algorithms
(twopi, fdp, etc.)
* added a toolbar entry to choose layouting
program
* added a configuration dialog
