Hi board,

I need to display a n-ary tree. Does anybody have an implementation or logic to position the various nodes?

The tree can be arbritrarily huge.

Currently the nodes are library - movieClips and added to the \_root using attachMovieClip and the connectors/edges are done using lines. The tree is not being displayed as of yet its just adding to nodes at random positions and drawing a line between them. ☹

Help. Any other stratergy to display the tree could also be used but the nodes should be draggable more precisely a node can be dragged and dropped into another node.

Thanks.

Cruiser.
