MSAGL performs layout based on ''principles of the [[Sugiyama scheme]]; it produces so called layered, or hierarchical, layouts'' (according to the MSAGL home page). Modified [[Coffman–Graham algorithm|Coffman-Graham scheduling algorithm]] is then used to find a layout that would fit in a given space. More detailed description of the algorithm can be found in US Patent 7932907.

At some time, it did not support a wide range of different layout algorithms, unlike, for instance, [[GraphViz]] or [[GUESS Graph Exploration System|GUESS]].
