Description

visNetCircle is supposed to visualise a graph object of class "igraph" via circle diagram. For better visualisation, ordering of vertices is determined according to communities and degrees.

Arguments

g

an object of class "igraph"

com

an object of class "communities" (see http://igraph.org/r/doc/communities.html)

circles

how circles are drawn in the plot. It can be either "single" for all communities being drawn in a single circle (by default) or "multiple" for communities being drawn in the different circles (i.e. one circle per community)

newpage

logical to indicate whether to open a new page. By default, it sets to true for opening a new page

ordering

a numeric vector about the ordering of vertices. It is optional. It is highly recommend to order vertices according to communities and degrees

colormap

short name for the colormap. It can be one of "jet" (jet colormap), "bwr" (blue-white-red colormap), "gbr" (green-black-red colormap), "wyr" (white-yellow-red colormap), "br" (black-red colormap), "yr" (yellow-red colormap), "wb" (white-black colormap), and "rainbow" (rainbow colormap, that is, red-yellow-green-cyan-blue-magenta). Alternatively, any hyphen-separated HTML color names, e.g. "blue-black-yellow", "royalblue-white-sandybrown", "darkgreen-white-darkviolet". A list of standard color names can be found in http://html-color-codes.info/color-names

vertex.label

the label of the vertices. The default vertex labels are the name attribute of the nodes

vertex.size

the size of each vertex. By default, it is decided according to node degrees

vertex.label.color

the color of vertex labels

vertex.label.cex

the font size of vertex labels

vertex.label.dist

the distance of the label from the center of the vertex. If it is 0 then the label is centered on the vertex. If it is 1 then the label is displayed beside the vertex.

vertex.shape

the shape of each vertex. It can be one of "circle", "square", "csquare", "rectangle", "crectangle", "vrectangle", "pie" (http://igraph.org/r/doc/vertex.shape.pie.html), "sphere", and "none". If it sets to NULL, these vertices with negative will be "csquare" and the rest "circle".

edge.width

line width for the edges (default 1)

edge.lty

line type for the edges (default 1)

edge.color.within

the color for edges within a community (default "grey")

edge.color.crossing

the color for edges between communities (default "black")

mark.shape

a numeric scalar or vector controlling the smoothness of the vertex group marking polygons. Its possible values are between -1 (fully polygons) and 1 (fully smoothness)

mark.expand

a numeric scalar or vector, the size of the border around the marked vertex groups

...

additional graphic parameters. See http://igraph.org/r/doc/plot.common.html for the complete list.

Value

invisible

Note
