Research direction

Reproduce the behavior by running the app repeatedly with identical input data and compare the generated graph layouts. Trace the graph-layout entry point to determine which layout parameters are exposed; done means documenting or implementing a way to produce the same layout consistently and verifying it across repeated runs.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I am creating an app that loads some data and draw the graph. However, every time I run the app with the same data, it generates a different graph.

Is there any way to set the layout parameters and make it generate the same layout everytime?
