Renders via igraph/ggraph with a layered (Sugiyama) DAG layout and canvas sizing adapted to the graph's own node density, rather than the previous Graphviz/DiagrammeR renderer, which laid large graphs out extremely wide and flat (e.g. the full compute graph rendered at 9019x1140px, with text too small to read and the arrows between boxes impossible to follow).
Arguments
- objects
The full list of FilePath, FileUses, and FileOutputs objects, or an already-built igraph object (see as_igraph()).
- path
The path where the PNG image will be saved.
- drop_stages
Character vector of `stage` values to omit entirely (node and its edges). Use "output_report" on a crowded overview graph to hide the "<X> PDF"/"<X> DOCX" leaf nodes, which add little beyond what their parent QMD node already conveys.
- drop_edges_to
Character vector of node names whose *incoming* edges should be omitted, while keeping the node itself visible. Use this for a node like an introduction/summary report that every other report is wired to depend on purely to force it to render last, not because of a real analytical dependency – dropping just the edges avoids a dense fan-in that conveys no real relationship.
- title
Optional title drawn on the plot itself. Leave NULL when the image is embedded with its own Quarto fig-cap, to avoid a duplicate- looking caption.
- base_font_size
Base font size (pt) for node labels; the title uses `base_font_size + 4`.
- label_wrap_width
Character width at which node labels are wrapped.
- min_width_in, max_width_in
Minimum and maximum plot width, in inches. Width scales with `width_per_node_in` between these bounds.
- min_height_in
Minimum plot height, in inches; height also scales with the number of pipeline layers.
- width_per_node_in
Width, in inches, added per node along the graph's horizontal extent, before clamping to `min_width_in`/`max_width_in`.
- dpi
Resolution (dots per inch) of the saved PNG.
