Creating and Positioning Labels for Plotting Networks or Alluvial

prepare_label_networks() creates a label column that make it easy to center label around particular clusters on the alluvial graph of intertemporal networks. prepare_label_alluvial()

Usage

prepare_label_networks(
  graphs,
  x = "x",
  y = "y",
  cluster_label_column = "cluster_label"
)

prepare_label_alluvial(
  alluv_dt = NA,
  window_column = "window",
  cluster_label_column = "cluster_label"
)

Arguments

graphs

A tibble graph from tidygraph or a list of tibble graphs.

x, y

The columns of your tibble graph or list of tibble graphs with the x and y coordinates of your nodes (for instance, the coordinates produce by layout_networks()).

cluster_label_column

The column with the cluster label you want to display. By default, "cluster_label", as it is the default name of the column created with name_clusters(). You may also use the cluster identifier created by add_clusters() for simple cluster, or by merge_dynamic_clusters() for inter-temporal clusters.

alluv_dt

A data.frame of an alluvial created with networks_to_alluv().

window_column

The column of the alluvial with your time window. By default, "window", as created by networks_to_alluv().
