<strong>Description</strong>:<br />
In a hierarchical layout, this attribute specifies the vertical position of a node. maxlevel<br />
tries to position the node at the maximum calculated level. Generally speaking, the vertical<br />
position of nodes is called level or rank (see p. 117), with level being a synonym for<br />
vertical_order.<br />
All level 0 nodes form the uppermost layer (the first layer), if the orientation is top-down.<br />
Level 1 nodes form the second layer, etc.<br />
The level specification is not in effect unless if an automatic layout is being calculated. The<br />
layout is calculated automatically if there is at least one node without a specified location<br />
(see loc attribute for nodes (p. 96) and summary nodes (p. 78).<br />
Note: The level specification may conflict with a near edge (p. 44) specification, because<br />
the source and target node of a near edge have to have the same level. In this case, the level<br />
specification of the source or target node of the near edge is ignored.<br />
