Hierarchical layout with vis.js


I'm using vis.js library to graphically display a network. I read the documentation and I need to use the hierarchical layout. It works fine until I use the sortMethod='directed' option. In this case I end up with a blank page. There's no Javascript error. Every other options combination works fine, but I need the directed option. I followed the documentation and it doesn't seem that I need to add further information to the network: it should all work with the 'from' and 'to' edges properties. What could it be?
Thank you all.

It seems to be a bug. I have been using this feature for months and suddenly it stopped working. I get the same behaviour as the one you describe. All options seem to work except the sortMethod='directed'. I cannot tell for sure which version introduced this bug but I found it out at 4.12.0.

We probably need to raise an issue to let their dev team know about it. Hope that helps. It is not exactly a solution to your issue but rather a verification of this bug since I have the same issue.

EDIT:

I tried both 4.11.0 and 4.10.0

4.11.0 : I get the same buggy behaviour.

4.10.0 : Works as expected. No issues.
