Editor data

Proximity stores layout information when you save a query in the Query Editor, letting the Query Editor re-display the query as currently laid out the next time it’s opened. Layout information, in the form of x and y coordinates, is stored in the editor-data element in the query XML file.

The editor-data element contains one vertex-location element for each vertex in the query. Each vertex-location element includes three required attributes, representing the name and coordinates of the vertex.

Proximity currently only saves the location of vertices in the Query Editor; edge location is determined by vertex location and is thus not saved.
