Gephi forums

I too am looking for a good way to do this. It looks like D3's force layout has both "edges" and "links", with links having some fixed length, so to some effect you can use D3 to get a hybrid force layout with a few nodes separated by planks instead of springs. There are some physics-engine building...

I'm running 0.8.2 beta on a MacBook. I've configured a heap of 2G. I can load in and manipulate a 5500 node, 15K relationship graph without any issues ... until I enable display of the node labels. As soon as I do that Gephi suffers an immediate and debilitating performance degradation. I can disabl...

I've also seen people using 'OctupiWallStreet" (etc). I'm not sure if those are serious posts or silly or sarcastic ones, nor whether you should include them in your data set. I thought it was worth mentioning though.

+1 from me too.

images?

Doubtful. My understanding is Seadragon is a solution for Microsoft webservers (IIS), and GoogleSites are linux based (Apache? or something else).

Now you have me thinking about using overloaded gravity functions to maybe do other things with force-layout (which don't necessarily make any sense, but could be fun exercises) such as: Concentrate nodes in radial or concentric "bands". Represent some sort of surface topology so that nodes tend to ...

You could use "Gravity" to represent an attraction force to the graph origin. You could try defining your Gravity so that it gets stronger the further away you get. Depending on the shape of your gravity curve you would be able to define a "soft border", where tiny increments in distance from the or...

From my perspective -- because it is the only one that produces "intuitive" graphs. The other layouts may produce pretty pictures, but they aren't really intuitive.
