    Version history

    Version 27.3.0 - December 2025
    • Feature: Radial Layout for Node Map
    • Description: The radial layout introduces a new way to visualize connections between nodes. It arranges nodes in a circular, ring-like pattern to highlight relationships and dependencies. Each node is positioned based on its connection to a related node, creating a clear and balanced visual representation of the network structure
    • Use Case: Use the radial layout to illustrate relationships between enities such as tables in a database or interconnected systems where a circular visualization provides a clearer understanding of how nodes are connected to each other
    Version 25.6.0 - August 2025
    • Key features added:
      • New layout type: Horizontal. Horizontal layout supports all key capabilities such as custom nodes, node animation, and supports all edge types
      • Updated spacing behavior to improve space utilization.
    • Removed unified node from the UI builder. Admins can still use it as a custom node in supported layouts
    Version 25.1.0 - February 2025
    • Suspend re-layout support in the Force layout
    • Ability to control space between nodes in the Force layout

    • Support of reduced animation in Force layout
    • Fixed bugs to improve popover and edge stability
    Version 24.10.1 - November 2024
    • Introduced a new 'force' layout to allow users to visualize any data in a force layout
    • Support for multiple edges & self referencing edges in the new layout
    • Support for custom nodes in the new force layout
    • Allowing configuration of custom popovers for nodes and edges
    • Support to export a map as a PNG
