Currently, it is neccesary to pass the bounds of the area which the algorithms use to constrain their output to the applyLayout() method. However, it would be nice if the layout algorithms could figure out the optimal size for the output themselves. This would enable to run the layouting process without the need of users adjusting the parameters until the distance between the elements reaches a sufficient level.
