LayoutController (gephi 0.9.3 API)

```
public interface LayoutController
```
A LayoutController is the one responsible for controlling the states of the LayoutModel. It always controls the current workspace model.
This controller is a singleton and can therefore be found in Lookup:
```
LayoutController lc = Lookup.getDefault().lookup(LayoutController.class);
```

- Method Detail
  - getModel
```
LayoutModel getModel()
```
    Returns the model of the currently selected Workspace.
  - setLayout
```
void setLayout(Layout layout)
```
    Sets the Layout to execute.
    
    Parameters:
    
    layout - the layout that is to be selected
  - executeLayout
```
void executeLayout()
```
    Executes the current Layout.
  - executeLayout
```
void executeLayout(int numIterations)
```
    Executes the current layout for numIterations iterations.
    
    Parameters:
    
    numIterations - the number of iterations of the algorithm
  - canExecute
```
boolean canExecute()
```
    Determine if the current Layout can be executed.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the layout is executable.
  - stopLayout
```
void stopLayout()
```
    Stop the Layout's execution.
  - canStop
```
boolean canStop()
```
    Determine if the current Layout execution can be stopped. If the current Layout is not running, it generally cannot be stopped.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the layout can be stopped.
