Arguments

x

A graph. It supports networks stored as igraph, network, and matrices objects (see details).

layout

Numeric two-column matrix with the graph layout in x/y positions of the vertices.

vertex.size

Numeric vector of length vcount(x). Absolute size of the vertex from 0 to 1.

bg.col

Color of the background.

vertex.nsides

Numeric vector of length vcount(x). Number of sizes of the vertex. E.g. three is a triangle, and 100 approximates a circle.

vertex.color

Vector of length vcount(x). Vertex HEX or built in colors.

vertex.size.range

Numeric vector of length 3. Relative size for the minimum and maximum of the plot, and curvature of the scale. The third number is used as size^rel[3].

vertex.frame.color

Vector of length vcount(x). Border of vertex in HEX or built in colors.

vertex.rot

Vector of length vcount(x) in Radians. Passed to npolygon, elevation degree from which the polygon is drawn.

vertex.frame.prop

Vector of length vcount(x). What proportion of the vertex does the frame occupy (values between 0 and 1).

edge.width

Vector of length ecount(x) from 0 to 1. All edges will be the same size.

edge.width.range

Vector of length ecount(x) from 0 to 1. Adjusting width according to weight.

edge.arrow.size

Vector of length ecount(x) from 0 to 1.

edge.color

A vector of length ecount(x). In HEX or built in colors. Can be NULL in which case the color is picked as a mixture between ego and alters' vertex.color values.

edge.color.mix

Proportion of the mixing.

edge.color.alpha

Either a vector of length 1 or 2, or a matrix of size ecount(x)*2 with values in ⁠[0,1]⁠. Alpha (transparency) levels (see details)

edge.curvature

Numeric vector of length ecount(x). Curvature of edges in terms of radians.

edge.line.lty

Vector of length ecount(x). Line types in R (e.g.- 1 = Solid, 2 = Dashed, etc).

edge.line.breaks

Vector of length ecount(x). Number of vertices to draw (approximate) the arc (edge).

sample.edges

Numeric scalar between 0 and 1. Proportion of edges to sample.

skip.vertex, skip.edges, skip.arrows

Logical scalar. When TRUE the object is not plotted.

add

Logical scalar.

zero.margins

Logical scalar.

Value

nplot_base returns a list with the following components:

• vertex.coords A list of length N where each element describes the geomtry of each vertex.

• vertex.color A vector of colors

• vertex.frame.coords Similar to vertex.coords, but for the frame.

• vertex.frame.color Similar to vertex.color, but for the frame.

• edge.color Vector of functions used to compute the edge colors.

• edge.coords Similar to vertex.coords, the points that describe each edge.

• edge.arrow.coords A list of matrices describing the geometry of the tip of the edges.

• edge.width A numeric vector with edges' widths.

• xlim, ylim Limits of the plot area.
