Request for Auto-Layout Feature
Thibault NESTOR
Hello IcePanel Team,
I would like to request the addition of an auto-layout feature to IcePanel. This feature would greatly enhance the usability and efficiency of the tool by automating the arrangement of elements within the diagrams.
Currently, manual layout adjustments can be time-consuming, especially for complex models with multiple components, containers, and relationships. An auto-layout feature could simplify this process, ensuring:
- Clear and Consistent Layouts: Automatically aligning elements for better readability and uniformity.
- Time Savings: Reducing the time spent manually positioning elements, particularly during iterative updates.
- Scalability: Making it easier to work with large and complex systems by maintaining an organized structure.
Kind regards

Tim Gaweco this one is still planned?

Mathieu Santostefano yes! Not currently being worked on (we did some initial invesigation earlier this year to see what this would take).
We've seen pretty good results though using our API + LLM + our new skill which you can check out here: https://github.com/IcePanel/icepanel-plugin
