Layout of workflow

Let's say I have workflow with 2 states (State1 and State2).  I have n activities that take the workflow from state1 to state2.  As the number of activities grows (from 1 to 20), the layout of this becomes complex.  What is the best way to use the JDiagram API so it will at the least show the names of the activities on the diagram (instead of overwriting one activity on top of another). 


To clarify further, with 1 activity the diagram looks fine.  With 2 activities, the 2 are written on top of each other and can't see the text of activities.  With 10 activities, it's just a huge thick line.

Have you tried using the LayeredLayout class?

The LayeredLayout behaves the same as TreeLayout and AnnealLayout.  Each activity line and label overlap each other.  The line is ok but the label's overwrite and can't read either text.

Doesn't changing the node / layer distance properties fix this? Please e-mail your workflow diagram, saved as XML, to support@mindfusion.eu.
