@Thomaash I do agree, in case of **cross references** between nodes, edges will have to cross each other. So there is not always a possibilty to organize a hierarchy without...

Looks good to me. Concerning the "best-effort" algorithm, I guess the _Reduction of the Number of Edge Crossings_ part of the [Sugiyama-Algorithm](https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Nikola_Nikolov2/publication/303226437_Sugiyama_Algorithm/links/59354e6f45851553b6f39e2e/Sugiyama-Algorithm.pdf) can help.

@deepanshu11madan no, I wasn't able to achieve no edge crossing. What do you mean by > no way to tell vsjs edges point coordinates ? Can you share a screenshot...

That does indeed make sense. Have you tried placing 'fake nodes' at the mentioned control points for the edges to force visjs to draw the edges as you want? So...

you can try to reduce the size of dummy nodes, but otherwise I have no idea

Hi @Thomaash, I was wondering if you have made any progress concerning this issue 🙃
