I have a collection of network points stored as Nodes and Edges for use in networkx, but would like to impliment a more advanced visualzation tool into the pyqtgraph widget so that I can use it in a GUI designed in pyqt5.
The problem with utilizing matplotlib to visualize the nx network is that the colors are not displayed, gravity cannot be manipulated, ect...
Figure 1
The optimal case would be if cytoscape or Gephi had a backend to allow for integration into these sorts of GUIs, since I am able to get things spaced out for visualization very well with these after constructing the network in nx.
Both figures were of the same data, the only difference is that figure 2 was visualized using Gephi, allowing for the nodes to be repelled a little more, making them readable.
Is there a way to:
- Adjust repulsion in networkx when NOT manually dictating node placement?
- Visualize a network in a pyqtGraph widget? (preferably interactive)
A GraphItem displays graph information as a set of nodes connected by lines (as in ‘graph theory’, not ‘graphics’). Useful for drawing networks, trees, etc.– Ululant
