Research direction

Begin with the ECL Visualizer Library and the Dermatology window scenario described in the issue. Determine which top-level Grid properties should be exposed through Visualizer, then define concrete examples for max columns or minimum pixel dimensions. Done should include a documented way to control the initial layout so multiple graphs remain usable.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently the default layout seems to try and render all requested visualizations within the initial space shown in the Dermatology window, which is problematic if requesting a larger number of graphs as they are each so small as to be unusable. It would be very helpful if there was a simple way to specify max columns or minimum pixel dimensions, something to ensure the initial view was useful. Is it possible to expose some top-level Grid properties so they can be set via Visualizer as well?

I'm happy to provide additional details or examples if that would be helpful. Thanks!
