grip 0.2.0

• Removes the 40 long-form compatibility aliases deprecated in the 0.1 series. See help("grip-0.2-migration") for the complete replacement map.
• Narrows the public graph-family API to primitive edge generators, configurable mask helpers, and complete graph bundles. Specialized edge-list builders, standalone surface embeddings, and parameter-coordinate builders remain available internally to those bundles.
• Makes gmds.result() internal; public layout methods continue to return the common "grip_gmds_layout" result format.
• Adds executable examples for every exported function and an API regression test that enforces this documentation contract.

grip 0.1.3

• Unifies topology-first and edge-length-metric layouts under grip(metric = "hop") and grip(metric = "edge_length").
• Gives trace.grip() the same metric selection and removes the short-lived weighted.grip() and trace.weighted.grip() entry points in favor of the unified API.
• Documents precisely how positive edge lengths affect force targets, shortest paths, multiscale hierarchy construction, neighborhoods, normalization, and optional LGKK stages in each metric mode.

grip 0.1.2

• Makes saved graph-family bundle ordering deterministic when files have tied modification times, as can occur on Windows.
• Corrects two undersized adjacency allocations in the compiled triangular mesh generator.

grip 0.1.1

• Adds geodesic-MDS, geodesic-KK, landmark, MISF, weighted, and interactive layout workflows developed since the initial submission.
• Caps compiled parallel work at two threads to comply with CRAN resource limits, including when automatic thread selection is requested.
• Replaces native assertion aborts with recoverable errors and strengthens queue state handling.
• Removes non-package utilities from the installed package and removes machine-specific installed paths.
• Shortens graph-family save filenames so they remain portable under long Windows temporary-directory paths.
• Expands the pkgdown reference index and reduces README animation assets for a smaller source package.
• Declares the package C++17 requirement explicitly.

grip 0.1.0

• First public release of grip.
• Centers the package around two main layout workflows: grip.layout() for unweighted graphs and grip.layout.weighted() for weighted graphs.
• Provides layout scoring and real-data candidate comparison via grip.score.layout() and grip.compare.layouts(), together with multiscale trace diagnostics via grip.layout.trace() and grip.layout.trace.weighted().
• Ships a large synthetic graph-family library, bundled weighted real-data examples, disconnected-component packing, and plotting helpers.
• Includes advanced public experimental full geodesic-KK (GKK) and landmark geodesic-KK (LGKK) preparation, scoring, and refinement helpers for weighted-layout evaluation and polish.
• Includes optional Shiny explorers for browsing layout catalogs and synthetic graph families.
