Layout igraph communities

Layout igraph communities, applies layout to each node community, experimental.

Usage

layout_communities(g, layout = layout_with_qfrf(repulse = 3), ...)

Arguments

g

igraph with graph attributes that include either 'mark.groups' or 'nodegroups'.

layout

function to apply to each igraph community.

...

additional arguments are ignored.

Value

igraph

Details

This function mimics igraph::layout_components(), in that it splits the input igraph into a list, applies layout to each graph, then merges the layouts together.

This layout is experimental, as it currently uses methods in igraph which assume each component is not connected, therefore the placement of disjoint nodesets is not at all based upon any relationship to other nodesets. In this case, communities may be connected to each other, and so placement could usually be improved. This layout is an area for future development.
