Feature Request: Auto alignment of VNC view nodes.
Feature request type
I'd like to have the VNC view to auto align. Moving those things can be a pain.
Description
I'd like to have a general button that just aligns the network nodes. Might be useful if you can group them too and then align yourself. However, it just feels like a pain in the ass to do it yourself.
Considered alternatives
NONE
Additional context
It would be a very usefull feature. It becomes even harder if one uses a mobile and lose the center of the map. It's almost not possible to center it.

Bump
I would also love to have that function. For me a "grid snap" or "guidelines" would be the best solution, since I want to adjust the position of the nodes myself (sorting by room or type...).
Since all nodes are the same size, maybe a "fixed grid" that can be turned off and on, would be a good solution? Just for reference I'm adding a screenshot of a mostly sorted system, how I would like to have a kind of snap align. Kind regards.

I would appreciate a grid as well. Plus something like a "zoom all button", because you can loose overview completely when accidentally moving the scroll bars or zooming. It's like looking for a stamp in the dark on the grass of a huge soccer field with a tiny flashlight.

True that! Great idea.
I would like to have nodes auto-arrange according to some algorithm, like the D3 force-directed-graph based on link strength. That would naturally group strongly linked nodes together - and the opposite for weak links. Several other softwares have something like this (D3, yED, graphviz), so it shouldn't be too hard to implement.
Might of zoomed or moved the nodes out of the view. Still no way to reset the map/view back to normal? or locate a node on the map from double clicking it from the list?
