Laying out a Chart<br />

Peacock<br />

layout<br />

The Peacock layout rearranges complex groups of connected entities on your<br />

chart to attempt to highlight the basic overall structure of a network.<br />

A Peacock layout groups sets of entities that are linked to one entity on the chart.<br />

The entities that are linked to this single entity appear as “peacock tails” fanning<br />

out from the entity. This can make it easier to see groups of activity on a chart.<br />

The Peacock layout is useful when you have many interlinked entities. It allows you<br />

to:<br />

• identify entities at the center of a lot of activity in high volume data, typically<br />

telephone billing information or financial transactions<br />

• find further detail about activity within groups of interconnected entities<br />
