yED and interesting designs

Question

Hello everybody,

I have a question reguarding the design.

With yED, I can make a great hierarchical tree but now i'd like to have the same tree with a nice design. For example arrows which look like drawn with a pencil and nice node (drawn too ?). Does yED provides a library of differents designs ? Or is there an other software like Adobe or anything else which can use the file format provided by yED to help me in modifying the design of the tree made with yED ?

 

Thank you for your help !

Re:

For example arrows which look like drawn with a pencil ...

yEd does provide 22 different, built-in arrow types. It is currently not possible to import additional, custom arrows.

 

Re:

... and nice node (drawn too)?

It is possible to import custom node templates into yEd. Please see How can I use my own node symbols in yEd? for details.

 

Re:

Does yED provides a library of differents designs?

yEd's built-in palette is a library of different designs. If the templates available in the palette are not sufficient for your needs, import custom node templates into yEd. Please see How can I use my own node symbols in yEd? for details.

As far as I know, there is no other application that can import yEd's visualization.
