Arguments

`x`	`igraph` object to be plotted
`...`	additional arguments are passed to `igraph::plot.igraph()`
`xlim, ylim`	default x and y axis limits. When either value is `NULL` the range is defined by the layout coordinate ranges, respectively, then expanded by adding `expand` to each side of the range.
`expand`	`numeric` value used to expand the x and y axis ranges, where `0.03` expands each size `⁠3%⁠`.
`rescale`	`logical` indicating whether to rescale the layout coordinates to `c(-1, 1)`. When `rescale=FALSE` the original layout coordinates are used as-is without change.
`node_factor`	`numeric` value multiplied by `igraph::V(x)$size` to adjust the relative size of all nodes by a common numeric scalar value.
`node_factor_l, label_factor_l, label_dist_factor_l`	`list` of vectors, where the names of the `list` are attribute names, and the names of each vector are attributes values. These values are applied in addition to `node_factor`, `label_factor`, `label_dist_factor`, respectively. The vector values are used as scalar multipliers, analogous to `node_factor`. The purpose is to apply scalar values to different subsets of nodes. For example, consider: `⁠node_factor_l=list(nodeType=c(Gene=1, Set=2)⁠`. The list name `"nodeType"` says to look at `igraph::vertex_attr(x, "nodeType")`. Nodes with `nodeType="Gene"` will use `1`, and `nodeType="Set"` will use `2` as the scalar value.
`edge_factor`	`numeric` value multiplied by `igraph::E(x)$width` to adjust the relative width of all edges by a common numeric scalar value.
`label_factor`	`numeric` value multiplied by `igraph::V(x)$label.cex` and `igraph::E(x)$label.cex` to adjust the relative size of all labels on nodes and edges by a common numeric scalar value.
`label_dist_factor`	`numeric` value multiplied by `igraph::V(x)$label.dist` to adjust the relative distance of all nodes labels from the node center by a common numeric scalar value.
`use_shadowText`	`logical` indicating whether to use `jamba::shadowText()` instead of `graphics::text()`, in order to render text labels with a subtle shadow-like outline around each label. This change improves legibility of labels at the expense of slightly longer plot rendering time.
`edge_bundling`	`character` string or `function`, where: `"default"` will try to detect an appropriate method: when `nodegroups` or `mark.groups` are defined, it chooses the matching option (see below); otherwise it chooses `"connections"`. `"none"` will perform no edge bundling. This method is best when rendering straight edges, or for rendering multiple identical edges with curvature as defined by `igraph::igraph.plotting()`. `"connections"` will perform graph edge bundling by shared connections by calling `edge_bundle_bipartite()` then `edge_bundle_nodegroups()`. This option is particularly good for bipartite graphs such as concept networks (cnet plots). `"mark.groups"` will perform graph edge bundling using `mark.groups` by calling `edge_bundle_nodegroups()`. This option is equivalent to `"nodegroups"` except that it uses `mark.groups` to define node groupings. `"nodegroups"` will perform graph edge bundling using `nodegroups` by calling `edge_bundle_nodegroups()`. This option is equivalent to `"mark.groups"` except that it uses `nodegroups` to define node groupings. `function` will call a custom edge bundling function using the `igraph` object `x` and the igraph parameters `param` as input. This output is currently untested, and is intended to enable alternative edge bundling functions which may exist outside this package. The custom function should be able to use the node layout coordinates in `graph_attr(x, "layout")`, and render edges between nodes.
`nodegroups`	`list` object as output by `edge_bundle_bipartite()` where each list element is a `character` vector of vertex node names present in `igraph::V(x)$name`. If no `"name"` vertex node attribute exists, then integer index values are used as names. Note that all vertex nodes must be represented in `nodegroup` in order for the corresponding edges to be plotted.
`render_nodes, render_edges`	`logical` indicating whether to render vertex nodes, or edges, respectively. Sometimes it can be useful to call this function for other byproduct outputs, for example, `jam_plot_igraph(graph, add=FALSE, render_nodes=FALSE, render_edges=FALSE)` will create a new plot device with appropriate axis ranges, and can be used to render edge bundling results for example.
`render_nodelabels`	`logical` indicating whether to draw node labels, which is typically the last operation in the plot sequence. Note that node labels can be rendered without also rendering the nodes or edges.
`render_groups`	`logical` indicating whether to render groups when `mark.groups` is supplied. Groups are rendered with a shaded polygon and border.
`vectorized_node_shapes`	`logical` indicating whether to plot vertex node shapes using vectorized operations. It is substantially faster, however the one drawback is that nodes are plotted in order of their shape, which affects the positioning of nodes when there are node overlaps. This tradeoff is relatively minor, and it is recommended either to reposition nodes to reduce or prevent overlaps, or adjust node sizes to reduce overlaps.
`plot_grid`	`logical` indicating whether to plot a background grid indicating units of 2% across the layout of the network graph. The units are calculated consistent with `nudge_igraph_nodes()`, `adjust_cnet_nodeset()` and other functions, scaled relative to the maximum x- or y-coordinate range of layout of the graph. Layout is obtained by `get_igraph_layout()` which by default uses supplied `layout`, or graph attribute `igraph::graph_attr(x, "layout")`. Note that by default, `jam_igraph()` represents the layout with aspect ratio = 1, so x-coordinates and y-coordiantes are represented with the same spacing per unit. This function calls `plot_layout_scale()` to render the grid lines.
`plot_function`	`function` that renders the graph, not intended to be changed except for very customized uses. By default `plot_function=jam_plot_igraph()` which calls a modified variant of `igraph:::plot.igraph()`.
`mark.groups`	A list of vertex id vectors. It is interpreted as a set of vertex groups. Each vertex group is highlighted, by plotting a colored smoothed polygon around and “under” it. See the arguments below to control the look of the polygons.
`mark.shape`	A numeric scalar or vector. Controls the smoothness of the vertex group marking polygons. This is basically the ‘shape’ parameter of the `graphics::xspline()` function, its possible values are between -1 and 1. If it is a vector, then a different value is used for the different vertex groups.
`mark.col`	A scalar or vector giving the colors of marking the polygons, in any format accepted by `graphics::xspline()`; e.g. numeric color ids, symbolic color names, or colors in RGB.
`mark.alpha`	`numeric` value between 0 (transparent) and 1 (opaque) indicating the transparency of `mark.col` color fill values, used only when `mark.groups` is defined, and `mark.col` is not defined.
`mark.border`	A scalar or vector giving the colors of the borders of the vertex group marking polygons. If it is `NA`, then no border is drawn.
`mark.expand`	A numeric scalar or vector, the size of the border around the marked vertex groups. It is in the same units as the vertex sizes. If a vector is given, then different values are used for the different vertex groups.
`mark.lwd, mark.lty`	line with and line type parameters for each `mark.groups` polygon.
`mark.cex`	`numeric` adjustment for mark label font size, used when `mark.groups` is supplied and has `names(mark.groups)`.
`mark.x.nudge, mark.y.nudge`	`numeric` values in units of the maximum x-axis or y-axis range for the layout coordinates, used to adjust each label displayed when `names(mark.groups)` is defined. These arguments are passed to `make_point_hull()` as `label.x.nudge`, `label.y.nudge`, respectively.
`verbose`	`logical` indicating whether to print verbose output.
`debug`	`logical` or `character` vector of attributes for which debug output will be plotted onscreen.

Details

This function is a drop-in replacement of igraph::plot.igraph(), intended to provide substantially faster vectorized plotting, to render bundled edges when requested, and to handle rescale=FALSE without requiring further adjustments. Note that this function focuses on recognizing graph options and settings, then passes the work off to jam_plot_igraph() which performs the heavy work of rendering the graph.

It also provides some convenient methods to adjust node size, label font size, and label distance from node center, based upon node attributes.

vectorized plots

This function calls jam_plot_igraph() as a replacement for igraph::plot.igraph(), and that function implements vectorized plot features when vectorized_node_shapes=TRUE by default:

When there are multiple different vertex "shape" attributes, this function renders nodes vectorized, one shape at a time. In this scenario, the original igraph::plot.igraph() draws each individual vertex, which is substantially slower (minutes compared to 1-2 seconds) for large igraph objects.
When there are multiple font families, labels are rendered in groups by font family, in order to comply with limitations in graphics::text(). This situation is fairly rare, however the speed improvement is substantial, again roughly minutes down to 1-2 seconds. The igraph::plot.igraph() renders each node label individually when there are multiple font families.

rescale=FALSE

The default igraph::plot.igraph() uses rescale=TRUE, which can distort the layout coordinates to fit within a fixed x- and y-axis range c(-1, 1). When using rescale=FALSE the xlim and ylim values are not adjusted to the actual coordinate range. The desired effect from this function jam_igraph() is to apply aspect=1 (asp=1) which fixes the aspect ratio so the coordinates represent visual Euclidean distance between nodes, and to define xlim and ylim to accomodate the full layout. This function also adjusts node vertex.size and vertex.label.dist proportionally.

edge bundling

When edge_bundling is something other than edge_bundling="none", edge connections between nodes are rendered using a specific function by drawing curved splines for each bundle of edges. The approach in igraph::plot.igraph() only draws straight edges between nodes. The recommended method is edge_bundling="default" which will try to detect an appropriate method to bundle edges. When mark.groups and nodegroups are not defined, the default method is "connections" which bundles edges only among nodes that share the same connections. The assumption is that nodes that share the same connections usually have very similar layout coordinates, so edge bundling is usually intuitive. In fact, for a very large set of nodes, they are often in a round cluster

Adjust node size, label size, label distance

The following arguments apply scaling to all nodes or edges:

node_factor - numeric multiplied by node size
edge_factor - numeric multiplied by edge size
label_factor - numeric multiplied by label font size
label_dist_factor - numeric multiplied by label distance from node center

New attributes vertex.label.fontsize and edge.label.fontsize which define fixed fontsize in points for nodes and edges, respectively. These values are not modified by vertex.label.cex nor edge.label.cex and are intended to allow control over specific fonts used in the final figure. Note their calculations are based upon par("ps") which should represent device-dependent point size. If this value is inappropriate, it should be adjusted to control the font sizing.

The following arguments apply scale factor based upon node attribute:

node_factor_l - list of named vectors applied to node size
label_factor_l - list of named vectors applied as label_factor . as a multiplier to label font size.
label_fontsize_l - list of named vectors applied to define a specific, fixed label fontsize in points, which is not modified . by vertex.label.cex nor label_factor.
label_dist_factor_l - list of named vectors applied to label distance from node center

The factor_l technique is as follows:

node_factor_l = list(node_attr_name = c(
   attr_value1 = factor1,
   attr_value2 = factor2))

A specific example:

node_factor_l = list(nodeType = c(
   Gene=1.5,
   Set=2))

In this case, nodes with attribute igraph::V(g)$nodeType == "Gene" will use factor 1.5 Nodes with attribute igraph::V(g)$nodeType == "Set" will use factor 2 All other nodes will not be adjusted.

Other features

The plot layout by default is not rescaled to c(-1, 1), therefore allowing direct control over plot dimensions and node sizes. The plot aspect ratio is fixed at 1, which renders many network layouts in their intended form, as opposed to scaling each axis to c(-1, 1), which can impose distortion of intended layout node distances.

When use_shadowText=TRUE node labels call jamba::shadowText() which draws a small partly transparent outline around labels, making them more legible when they overlap colored nodes. This step effectively draws each label n times, which can slightly slow the rendering of the overall figure.

When pie_to_jampie=TRUE, any nodes with shape="pie" are changed to shape="jampie" for the purpose of rendering pie shapes in vectorized fashion, instead of being drawn for each node separately. This change is a substantial improvement in rendering time. In addition, optional node attributes are available:

pie.border to control individual pie wedge borders, which are drawn as inner borders so each pie wedge border is visible without
pie.lwd to control line width of pie wedge borders.
pie.lty to control the line type of pie wedge borders
frame.color to control the frame border color drawn around the full circular pie node. This border is drawn as an outer border, so it will not overlap any internal pie wedge border colors.

Default colors for marked node groups mark.col and mark.border when not defined upfront, will call colorjam::rainbowJam() and not grDevices::rainbow(). The colorjam::rainbowJam() produces more visually distinct categorical colors. This behavior can be controlled by supplying a character vector with specific colors for mark.col and mark.border. Note that the border should match the colors, or it can be set to "grey45" for a generally visible border.

When names(mark.groups) is defined, the values are used as labels, positioned at the outer edge of each polygon. The label text size is adjusted with label.cex, and the position can be adjusted with mark.x.nudge, mark.y.nudge, in units of fraction of the maximum x- or y-axis range (effectively fraction of the layout size).

Optional argument nodegroups can be supplied, which is a list of vectors, where each vector represents a group of nodes. The nodegroups can be used with edge_bundling="nodegroups" to define custom edge bundling. This option is useful for defining a group of nodes for edge bundling, when those nodes should not be used to render group borders as with mark.groups.

Finally, individual plot components can be individually disabled:

render_nodes=FALSE
render_edges=FALSE
render_groups=FALSE
render_nodelabels=FALSE
