Disable initial animation

GoJS
#1

Hi,

I’m on 1.6 and am trying to disable the inital loading animation. When my layeredDigraphLayout diagram loads it ‘fly in’ from the upper left corner to the lower right.

I came across the animationManager.isEnabled flag and tried this but it had no affect:

let myDiagram =
            $(go.Diagram, this._element.nativeElement, // must be the ID or reference to an HTML DIV
                {
                    // start everything in the middle of the viewport
                    initialContentAlignment: go.Spot.TopCenter,
                    initialAutoScale: go.Diagram.Uniform,
                    layout: $(go.LayeredDigraphLayout, { direction: 90, layerSpacing: 10, columnSpacing: 80, setsPortSpots: false }),
                    "animationManager.isEnabled": false 
                });

What am i doing wrong?

Thanks!

That should work – when I try adding:

    "animationManager.isEnabled": false

to a random sample, it no longer animates the layout.

You can instead set:

    "animationManager.isInitial": false

to just disable the animation of any initial layout.

Thanks “animationManager.isInitial”: false

was the behavior I was looking for, i must have missed that setting in the docs.
