Is there any way to apply a layout to only some parts of a graph? For example, it would be nice to be able to highlight nodes using the Dragging diameter, and then apply a layout to those nodes only. (I have graphs that include two disconnected subgraphs. What's optimal for the layout of one subgrap...

Another alternative would be to use GEXF format. This might be a lot more work to generate, but I think it can be made to do what you want. (However, I haven't tested anything that's exactly like your case. In my networks, once an edge appears, it never disappears, although its attributes change wit...

To the left of the "Apply" button, there's a very small icon that looks like a link in a chain. (That's what it looks like to me, anyway.) To cause the node size to change dynamically, you have to click that icon, so that the region around it becomes "depressed", and then also click on the "Apply" b...

I would like to be able to cause Gephi to display a hull around any three nodes that I specify. Is this possible? Why? In my networks, in some cases there is a dependency between an edge and a node elsewhere in the network. That is, there is a data associated with the edge, and this data is a functi...

I think you mean "nodes without connections". It seems that one way to do it is to list the nodes first, and then list the connections in a CSV file: A B C D A;B C;A Load this CSV file, and you should see that the node D exists but has no edges connected to it. I think there's another way to do this...

I did some further investigation. Opening the Gephi app in the normal way runs /Applications/Gephi.app/Contents/MacOS/Gephi which is a link to /Applications/Gephi.app/Contents/Resources/gephi/bin/gephi This is a Unix shell script. Running it will start Gephi once, but not a second time. Question: Wh...

Here's one answer, but I don't think it offers the precision that you want. It's possible to zoom in and out on the image--i.e. to expand or contract the graph as a whole, without changing distances or angles between nodes. You can do this with a mouse wheel or anything that's equivalent to a mouse ...

I find Gephi's ability to view changes in dynamic attributes using the timeline with dynamic GEXF data very useful. However, at this point (Gephi 0.8.2-beta), this functionality is not yet stable. My experience has been that I can load and use a single dynamic GEXF data file. Loading a second dynami...

I want to set a specific maximum and minimum for a range that I'm using for ranking. Gephi chooses the extreme values from my data, but I want to set the maximum and minimum to 1 and -1 respectively, even when those are not the max and min values in the data. Is there a way to do this? A workaround ...

I doubt that I would know enough to answer this question, but I think that more details about the graph that's causing this will be needed in order for someone to answer the question. I have not seen this behavior with my graphs.
