Layout not respecting bounding box

[crognale]

I have a 400x400 box, with some nodes fixed along the lefthand side (x=0) and some along the righthand side (x=400) by setting node.position in Cytoscape. However when I set the layout with cola, many of the remaining nodes end up outside the boundingBox I defined, and the viewport has to zoom out to accommodate them:

Setting a boundingBox doesn't seem to have any effect on the simulation as far as I can tell.

Things I have tried:

• in layout{}, setting boundingBox{x1, y1, x2, y2}
• Setting boundingBox{x1, y1, w, h}
• Setting fit=false
• Setting unconstrIter = 0
• in Cytoscape config, setting zoomingEnabled = false
• Using node.renderedPosition instead of node.position to fix lefthand and righthand nodes

This extension is just a wrapper for Cola. If you don’t like how Cola behaves, you should file an issue with Cola itself. I looks like you probably over-constrained the system, but I’m not a Cola expert. Could that many nodes fit inside a 400x400 (model px) box without overlap?

@crognale have you found out how to make boundingBox option work?
