How can I plot curved lines in a graph plot?

The 'layered' layout of the plot function for a graph makes good looking plots (Figure A).

H = digraph(Adjacencymatrix);    
h = plot(H,'Layout','layered','AssignLayers','alap','Sources',numel(Lind),'Sinks',leafind,'EdgeCData',1.1-H.Edges.Weight./7,'LineWidth',1,'NodeLabel',names(Lind));

However, I need to move some of the nodes in the graph plot around.

As soon as I change XData, YData of the plot, the edges of the graph plot become straight. (Figure B)

A)B)

plot() does not allow me to combine XData, YData with 'Layout'.

Exporting the figure to svg/pdf/eps does not preserve edge/node relationships, so I cannot easily move nodes in Inkscape either.

How can I get both

A) a graph plot with curved edges, and

B) determine / change some of the node positions

Thanks for helping

Sorry I don't have the answer, as I am looking for the same thing myself. I thought I would give this a bump in case anyone else sees it.

layout(h,'layered')

try using this after changing XData and YData
