Particles with size #10

Open deblocker opened 7 years ago

deblocker commented 7 years ago

What about add width & height to particles? Beside changes in distance calculation, what other changes would be required?

jonobr1 commented 7 years ago

I'm not totally sure what would have to change to implement this. In your opinion how would you like to use width and height attributes on particles?

I need to implement a force-driven constrained layout for rectangular shapes, you could think something like cola.js (or maybe gridstack.js) but with more emphasis on x-y constraints. So for example, springs shall be attached to a side of the rectangle, particles shouldn't overlap and also not stick out from given boundaries.
