#' Layout nodes using a text-based schematic
#'
#' @description
#'
#' Layout one or several groups of nodes using a text-based schematic. The
#' option is available to apply sorting to each of the groups.
#'
#' @inheritParams render_graph
#' @param layout A layout character string that provides a schematic for the
#'   layout. This consists of a rectangular collection of `-` characters (for no
#'   node placement), and numbers from `1` to `9` (representing different
#'   groupings of nodes, further described in the `nodes` argument).
#' @param nodes A named vector of the form: `c("1" = "[node_attr]:[value]",
#'   ...)`. The LHS corresponds to the numbers used in the `layout` schematic.
#'   The RHS provides a shorthand for the node attribute and a value for
#'   grouping together nodes (separated by a colon). For instance, with
#'   `"type:a"` in the RHS (and `"1"` in the LHS) we would target all nodes with
#'   a `type` attribute equal to `a` for positioning in the graph as described
#'   by the `1`s in the `layout`.
#' @param sort An optional sorting method to apply to the collection of nodes
#'   before assigning positional information. Like `nodes`, this is a named
#'   vector of the form: `c("1" = "[node_attr]:asc|desc", ...)`. The `node_attr`
#'   in this case should be different than that used in `nodes`. Ideally, this
#'   node attribute should have unique values. Choose either `asc` or `desc`
#'   right of the colon for ascending or descending sorts.
#' @param width The width of the `layout` diagram.
#' @param height The height of the `layout` diagram.
#' @param ll A vector describing the the lower-left coordinates of the `layout`
#'
#' @return A graph object of class `dgr_graph`.
