Daniel:

I'm afraid that I don't have time to get into the details of layout algorithm
design (an area which is not my specialty in any case).  However, my general
understanding is that KKLayout is designed to position vertices such that their
pairwise Euclidean distances are proportional to their shortest-path distances--it
doesn't consider vertex overlapping per se, and I doubt there's a straightforward
way to incorporate that into the algorithm.

You might try running SpringLayout on the output of KKLayout (just pass KKLayout
as a parameter to SpringLayout's initialize() method); SL does incorporate vertex
repulsion, so it might work better.  If that doesn't work for you, though, I
don't have any immediate suggestions, other than to experiment with the various
layout algorithms that we provide (or write your own).

Good luck--

Joshua
