[BUG] ring / radial layouts intermittently do not render as rings

[DataBoyTX]

Describe the bug

User reported an issue where the radial layouts sometimes do not render, and it creates more of force-directed layout instead of radial. I was able to reproduce this with our demo notebook after running the notebook several times.

To Reproduce

Run the following pygraphistry demo notebook until the issue appears: layout_categorical_ring.ipynb

Expected behavior ring layout should also appear

Actual behavior looked more like force-directed layout than ring
