alignment option for zoomToFit call

[MeMeMax]

Hi, I would like to give zoomToFit an alignment (left/start, center, right/end). Currently it automatically uses center and the only option to align it elsewhere is setting (negative) padding which is not really robust for different view sizes or without manual calculation on my side.

Sidenote: On this site at least the links to FlowConfig and NgDiagramConfig are leading to 404 pages. Looks like there is the "configuration" segment missing in the links. Maybe there are more inconsistencies in other pages after a rename or something?

Hi, thanks for the idea!

We hadn't originally planned to make zoomToFit configurable in this way, but you're absolutely right that relying on padding for alignment is not a robust solution. After looking into it, it should actually be pretty straightforward to implement. In the next release we plan to expose one of our internal methods to allow passing x and y values to position the zoomToFit anchor directly. That should give you the flexibility to align it to the left/start, center, or right/end without any manual calculations on your side.

As for your sidenote - great catch, thank you! We'll audit the documentation links and fix the broken ones in the next release as well.

Stay tuned for the upcoming release!
