Height

determines the height of the graph

  • Type in a number
Width

determines the width of the graph

  • Type in a number
Node distance

determines the distance between the nodes

  • Type in a number to set the distance
  • A larger number will spread the nodes farther apart
Node charge

determines whether nodes are repulsed or attracted to each other 

  • Type in a positive number to make the nodes attract; type in a negative number to repulse nodes 
  • Attractive nodes will spread nodes apart; repulsive nodes will overlap nodes with closer data values
Node gravity

controls the distance the nodes appear from the center of the graph

  • Higher numbers make the nodes move toward the center; lower numbers make the nodes move away
Node strength

controls the length of the links

  • Type in a number between 0 and 100
  • Higher numbers make longer links
Node shape

sets the shape of the nodes

  • Choose from a list of shapes in the drop-down menu
Popup show time

controls the number of seconds a pop-up dialogue box shows up

  • Type in a number of seconds
Node size

controls the radius of the nodes

  • Type in a higher number to create larger nodes or a lower number to create smaller nodes
Node color

sets the color a node will have if there are hidden nodes
