             Summary: Allow NiFi to automatically layout components within a Process Group
                 Key: NIFI-9926
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-9926
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Core Framework, Core UI
            Reporter: Mark Payne
            Assignee: Mark Payne


Often times, flows start simple with a handful of processors connected together in a mostly-straight line. Then a few routing decisions are made. Then a few more processors are added. Eventually, the flow can become pretty tangled, even to the point of being snowflake-like. Additionally, we sometimes have users who build flows dynamically using the REST API.

NiFi should support a way to more easily align components on the canvas and to automatically lay out all components in a Process Group.
