Hello! First post here - good afternoon from Sydney!
I have a problem that I'm sure most people would have come across before, and I thought maybe this would be the place to ask. We have a graphical model showing connections between approximately 300 items. It was automatically generated with all of the objects in the top left corner of the model.
I now need to layout the model so that it is readable. However, the built-in layouts are not effective in displaying this quantity of information, and a manual layout will take hours of work. What I'm looking for is something more like a force-directed layout or an orthogonal layout algorithm. (I cannot post the links here, but there are Wikipedia articles outlining these types of algorithms.)
Has anybody found a solution for this kind of layout problem before?

Dear Tom,
I remember that a community member published a macro for auto-indexing.
Maybe that helps you to accomplish a meaningful layout of your model.
Cheers
