Click on a Node to center it and show its relationships.
The RadialLayout class is an extension defined at RadialLayout.js. The override of the
RadialLayout.rotateNode sets the angle, sweep, and radius data properties. Bindings in the node template
use those properties to produce the appropriate Shape.geometry and the GraphObject.alignment and GraphObject.angle for each
TextBlock.
GoJS provides its own collection classes: List, Set, and Map. You can iterate over a collection by using an Iterator. More information can be found in the GoJS Intro.
A tooltip is an Adornment that is shown when the mouse hovers over an object that has its GraphObject.toolTip set. The tooltip part is bound to the same data as the part itself.
It is typical to implement a tooltip as a "ToolTip" Panel holding a TextBlock or a Panel of TextBlocks and other objects. Each "ToolTip" is just an "Auto" Panel Adornment that is shadowed, and where the border is a rectangular Shape with a light gray fill. However you can implement the tooltip as any arbitrarily complicated Adornment.

The GoJS Geometry class controls the "shape" of a Shape, whereas the Shape.fill and Shape.stroke and other shape properties control the colors and appearance of the shape. For common shape figures, there are predefined geometries that can be used by setting Shape.figure. However one can also define custom geometries.
One can construct any Geometry by allocating and initializing a Geometry of at least one PathFigure holding some PathSegments. But you may find that using the string representation of a Geometry is easier to write and save in a database. Use the static method Geometry.parse or the Shape.geometryString property to transform a geometry path string into a Geometry object.

GoJS allows for the creation of custom layouts to meet specific needs.
There are also many layouts that are extensions -- not predefined in the go.js or go-debug.js library,
but available as source code in one of the three extension directories, with some documentation and corresponding samples.

GoJS can be extended in a variety of ways. The most common way to change the standard behavior is to set properties on the GraphObject, Diagram, CommandHandler, Tool, or Layout. But when the desired property does not exist, you might need to override methods of CommandHandler, Tool, Layout, Link, or Node. Methods that you can override are documented in the API reference. Various features of GoJS can be overriden, either by replacing a method on an instance (a feature of JavaScript) or by defining a subclass. You should not modify the prototypes of any of the GoJS classes.
In addition to our samples, GoJS provides an extensions gallery,
showcasing the creation of custom tools and layouts.
Those classes and samples are written in TypeScript, available at ../extensionsJSM/,
as ECMAScript/JavaScript modules -- these use the ../release/go-module.js library.
We recommend that you copy the files that you need into your project, so that you can adjust how they refer to the GoJS library
that you choose and so that you can include them into your own building and packaging procedures.
