Let me start with... thank you Tim!
I like it a lot already and can't wait to see where it goes from here. Being curious (as usual), I decided to see what would happen if I tried it on objects that were /not/ connected and it resulting in placing all objects in a circle. I personally think that this aspect of it is worthy enough to have it's own button in the distribute section (otherwise people probably won't find it... and it just plain rocks :-) ).
Jon Cruz: It's definitely *not* rotate clones, but it does the clock example correctly and in a very simple way. I tried the ellipse with a radial gradient, tile clones (11 columns is the only parameter to be set), selected all, hit the new button in align & distribute, and it did the clock face correctly. For note, the distance of ellipses furthest from each (left to right) other determines the diameter of the resulting circle.
Anyway, the auto-layout of graphs is great on it's own, but that bonus function was a nice surprise!
Bob, where in my win32 libs do I need to stick the boost-graph headers? (and in case you repackage the libs, gtk+ 2.8.11 has no new bugs that I've seen...)
