AbstractWe consider planar drawings of trees that must satisfy constraints on the angles between edges incident to a common vertex and on the distances between adjacent vertices. These requirements arise naturally in many applications such as drawing phylogenetic trees or route maps. For straight-line drawings, either class of constraints is always realizable, whereas their combination is not in general. We show that straight-line realizability can be tested in linear time, and give an algorithm that produces drawing satisfying both groups of constraints together in a model where edges are represented as polylines with at most two bends per edge or as continuously differentiable curves.
