PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a graph generating device, a graph generating method, and a graph generating program that are capable of easily generating a graph of a layout intended by a user.SOLUTION: Area determination means 532 determines a shape and size of an area required for laying out an entire selection node selected by using an input device 10. Second layout-position calculation means 533 replaces the entire selection node with one tentative node having the shape and size of the determined area, and calculates a layout position for the tentative node and nodes other than the selection node. Third layout-position calculation means 534 executes processing according to the Sugiyama algorithm on the basis of graph structure data, under the condition that a relative positional relationship are maintained for the tentative node and the nodes other than the selection node defined in accordance with the result calculated by the second layout-position calculation means 533, and under the condition that the entire selection node is laid out in place of the tentative node. |
