Viewport Limiter

The ViewportLimiter limits the interactive movement of the viewport. This helps to navigate the canvas without losing the content.

The ViewportLimiter#bounds (or effective viewport limiter area) are calculated as the union of two rectangles: The ViewportLimiter#viewportContentMargins, which act like insets on the graph component, and the ViewportLimiter.minimumViewportContentRatio, which defines which percentage of the viewport is used for limiting.

Things to Try

Pan the graph with a pointer or touch device. Try to move the graph out of the viewport. Observe how the Viewport Limiter prevents moving the graph completely outside.
Change the limiting policy and the settings in the property panel on the right-hand side. Move the graph again to see how the different settings affect the viewport limiting.
