[igraph] heterogeneous vertex sizes with layout.fruchterman.reingold

[santiago gil]

Hello all,

I'm trying to plot a network where the vertices will have very different sizes. When I use layout.fruchterman.reingold() tightly connected groups clump up and the nodes overlap each other, so that when I plot the network with different vertex sizes some of the vertices completely cover all their neighbors. Playing around with parameter repulserad helps a bit, but it's still not even close to what it should look like. Does anybody know of a way of introducing in layout.fruchteman.reingold() an exclusion radius, and making it different for each vertex?

Thanks!!! Best wishes,


Santiago
