Graphia VS graphviz

Export the graph to GML or to GraphML or to GraphViz DOT or to some other Graph format. BTW I recommend 3D graph visualization over 2D when possible, that is when you're exploring interactively as opposed to printing figures. The Graphia tool is the only FOSS tool for this purpose that I know of:

I may be biased. https://graphia.app

A fast 3D alternative for visualizing large graphs is Graphia: https://github.com/graphia-app/graphia https://graphia.app However, it's currently suffering from the Qt switch from 5 to 6.

Regarding Graphviz itself, I wonder why is there no special layout logic for planar graphs? They can be recognized and embedded on the plane in linear time without intersecting edges, so it would be very nice if some of the Graphviz tools actually did that.

Anyone who is able to fund a summer intern project (or other project) based on graphviz is invited to contact any of the project leaders, e.g. send a message to north on graphviz org).

That's interesting. It's not hard to see the problem. HTML labels don't help, either. How do other languages solve this? Like, a shell HERE document that has one fixed string as a terminator? The graphviz lexer https://gitlab.com/graphviz/graphviz/-/blob/main/lib/cgraph/... seems hackable but disabling downstream processing of escapes elsewhere would be necessary too. Possibly this would mean bypassing some of the processing in the function make_label in https://gitlab.com/graphviz/graphviz/-/blob/main/lib/common/...

It's a disappointment or even failure of our current language scanning and parsing tools or, really, the way we used them, that this is not an easy exercise.
