title: Change the distance between nodes in Graphviz
body: <p>I'm using graphiz to generate some graphics, I'm using <code>twopi</code> to draw a circle of nodes. One node in the midle as a root. this is whet I get :</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/wmgMm.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/wmgMm.png" alt="My Graph"></a></p>
  
  <p>I need to change the distance between the root <code>A</code> and the other nodes  individually. So I used the <code>minlen</code> attribute, but that doesn't work for me.</p>
  
  <p>this is the code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>digraph G {
   ranksep=3;
  
  "1" [ label="A",shape="box",style="filled", fillcolor="#FCD975" ];
  "2" [ label="B",shape="box",style="filled", fillcolor="#FCD975" ];
  "3" [ label="C",shape="box",style="filled", fillcolor="#FCD975" ];
  "4" [ label="D",shape="box",style="filled", fillcolor="#FCD975" ];
  "5" [ label="D",shape="box",style="filled", fillcolor="#FCD975" ];
  "6" [ label="D",shape="box",style="filled", fillcolor="#FCD975" ];
  
  
  "1"-&gt; "2" [ label=" ",color="blue" ,minlen="1"];
  "1"-&gt; "3" [ label=" ",color="blue", minlen="4" ];
  "1"-&gt; "4" [ label=" ",color="blue" ];
  "1"-&gt; "5" [ label=" ",color="blue", minlen="3" ];
  "1"-&gt; "6" [ label=" ",color="blue" ];
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any idea how to draw a star graphic, and configure the distance between the nodes individually?</p>
  
  <p>Any help will be appreciated.</p>
