Expand the Custom Diagram Layout template design to include the use of wildcards or regex patterns

[GregSal]

Also allow the structure matching to reference other attributes of the structure such as the "Structure Type" or
"Density".

The Custom Diagram Layout template design will need additional parameters:

• An indicator as to how to treat the text i.e. literal or regex
• An indicator of the structure attribute to match against (e.g. Structure ID, Structure Type, Density, etc.)
• One or more parameters to indicate what to do with multiple matches

**Dealing with multiple matches. **

One possibility is a "Distribute vertical" or "Distribute Horizontal" option.

• This would specify that multiple matches should be centered around the specified coordinates but distributed in the specified direction.
• Also consider a spacing factor for the distribution.
• In terms of the overall relative coordinates, they would have to take into account the size of the block of nodes when converting relative coordinates into absolute ones.
