Re: Help with GraphPinScene and adding of Pins

You can set the a layout for any widget.  This might be a good place to 
start. 
http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/org-netbeans-api-visual/org/netbeans/api/visual/widget/doc-files/documentation.html#Layout

It sounds like you are using IconWidget as the Nodes.  So you would just 
set the IconWidget's layout as show below. If you end having control 
over the constructor of the Widget, you can also set the layout there.  
Then when you add any children ie pin widgets of some sort) to that node 
widget they should fall into you desired layout. 
       Widget w1 = new Widget (scene);
       w1.setBorder (BorderFactory.createLineBorder (1, Color.RED));
       w1.setLayout (LayoutFactory.createVerticalFlowLayout ());

Remember, if you decide to play the pins in very specific location (ie 
you don't want to use one of the predefined layouts ), you can simply 
set the preferred location rather than modifying the layout.
