Hi!
First question : Is it possible to sort data in layout LayeredDigraphLayout?
Second question : In TreeLayout it is possible to sort by the comparer like this :
function keyCompare(a, b) {
var at = a.node.data.category;
var bt = b.node.data.category;
if (at < bt) return -1;
if (at > bt) return 1;
return 0;
}
The sort is on one property but it is possible to sort on one property then one another?

First, not really, since LayeredDigraphLayout is supposed to be able to re-order vertexes in a layer in order to try to reduce the number of link crossings.
Second, sure – just change your comparer function to take all of the data properties that you care about.
OK so in treelayout can i have two fathers for one children?
I ask this question cause in LayeredDigraphLayout it is possible to have this case but it s not possible to sort my data by one property and vice versa.
It does not make sense for a node to have more than one “parent” in a tree structure. However, although TreeLayout is tolerant of such relationships, it is not very accommodating of them.
If you are doing something like http://gojs.net/latest/samples/orgChartExtras.html, you could declare all but one of those “parent” links to be
isLayoutPositioned: false,
isTreeLink: false
which will allow TreeLayout to operate as if the extra parent links were not present, and which will allow Node operations on trees to ignore those extra links.
