graph_tool.draw

This module contains functions for graph drawing and layout.

Layout algorithms

sfdp_layout	Obtain the SFDP spring-block layout of the graph.
fruchterman_reingold_layout	Calculate the Fruchterman-Reingold spring-block layout of the graph.
arf_layout	Calculate the ARF spring-block layout of the graph.
radial_tree_layout	Computes a radial layout of the graph according to the minimum spanning tree centered at the root vertex.
planar_layout	Performs a canonical layout of a planar graph.
random_layout	Performs a random layout of the graph.

Graph drawing

graph_draw	Draw a graph to screen or to a file using cairo.
draw_hierarchy	Draw a nested block model state in a circular hierarchy layout with edge bundling.
graphviz_draw	Draw a graph using graphviz.
prop_to_size	Convert property map values to be more useful as a vertex size, or edge width.
get_hierarchy_control_points	Return the Bézier spline control points for the edges in g, given the hierarchical structure encoded in graph t.

Low-level graph drawing

cairo_draw	Draw a graph to a cairo context.
interactive_window	Display an interactive GTK+ window containing the given graph.

GraphWidget	Interactive GTK+ widget displaying a given graph.
GraphWindow	Interactive GTK+ window containing a GraphWidget.

GraphArtist

matplotlib.artist.Artist specialization that draws Graph instances in a matplotlib figure.
