I really can't grasp this command. I've got layouts working in the past, but only through trial and error. I made a small program to look at different combinations of parameters and saw that 0,0,0,0 has the same effect as 1,0,1,0. It's strange! I just end up guessing till it works.

As I remember it in BPlus, for each edge you chose wether it was tethered to one side of the parent or the other, or proportional. Was there a problem with this design? It seems more intuitive than in MaxGUI.

Perhaps this is an out-of-date topic. I can't make it work right first time, which I could in BPlus.

EDIT:! Scratch this! I've just made a stuupid mistake in my code, sorry!

OK, the example I gave does produce two different outputs, but I still find the old method much easier to predict!
