Plandot
What is Plandot ?
Plandot is a small tool which reads a Graphviz graph description with some additional information describing "slides" and generates one image per slide. Each slide specifies which nodes of the graph should be visible. Plandot can then be used in your slides to present evolutions of a graph, where placement of nodes remains the same for each slide.Example
From this file, the command plandot -o prefix crazy.pdot will generate the following image files:
