Hi there I noted this too (also on Mac) and I suspect it has to do with the Graal Javascript engine. But I haven't investigated on this yet.
The cause was using AWT
classes without drawing on the screen. Using headless mode fixes this in version 0.16.2
.
Btw. as you're using kotlin, you might be interested in using graphviz-kotlin
?
What is (or where is) graphviz-kotlin?
Excellent, thank you very much for the quick turnaround. I verified the fix for this 👍
I have plans on trying out graphviz-kotlin soon, but for the first releases I preferred the java API due to the extensive documentation in the PRs/issues of this repo. Now that FloorPlan has a somewhat covered usecase, we could try replacing the java bindings with kt ones.
graphviz-kotlin is a kotlin DSL for graphviz. It's here: https://github.com/nidi3/graphviz-java/tree/master/graphviz-kotlin 😄 And here https://github.com/nidi3/graphviz-java#kotlin-dsl
If there are any questions or suggestions about it, feel free to communicate them.
Hi, first of all thanks for this project, it has been very useful.
I have built an application on top of it, which renders ER diagrams using graphviz by sourcing a database schema file. Check the code here.
There are two output branches on that app, one that spits out a text representation (in the DBML form) and another one that uses graphviz-java to output Dot/Svg/Png files.
What I (and other users) noticed is that, when running the graphviz-java path, my entire screen flickers for a brief moment (in other words, it blinks in black and then back to normal).
FWIW, I'm on a MacBook with MacOS Catalina 10.15.4 (19E287).
Since the idea for my project is to be run quite frequently (many times a day), the flicker starts to get a tad annoying.
I glanced over the other issues in this repo but couldn't find references. Can you please advise on how to prevent it?
