The  Arrange( ID ) method arranges the elements starting from element with the specified ID. If missing, all linked-elements are arranged. The Auto-Arrange feature arranges automatically horizontally or vertically the elements on the surface based on their relations, so they won't intersect one with another as much as possible. The Add ( of Elements collection ) method adds a new element on the surface, while Add ( of Links collection ) adds a new link between two elements. The DefArrange property defines options to perform the arrangement of the elements.

The Arrange method changes the position of the elements determined by:

• X property, specifies the element's x-position.
• Y property, specifies the element's y-position.

The DefArrange property can:

• arrange elements horizontally or vertically
• increases or decrease the distance between arranged elements.
• align the elements based on the incoming outgoing elements.
