In the previous recipe, you learned how to rotate a graph by specific degrees in a clockwise direction. In this recipe, you will learn about a complementary algorithm to the Clockwise Rotate algorithm. This algorithm is called the Counter-Clockwise Rotate layout algorithm.
The Counter-Clockwise Rotate layout algorithm is used in cases in which rotation of a graph or a network by specific degrees in a counter-clockwise direction is desired.
We will begin with the Les Misérables network and explain how to use the Counter-Clockwise Rotate layout algorithm to obtain a rotated version of the network. The steps remain the same for any other network too. So let's get started.
Load the Les Misérables graph in Gephi.
In the Layout panel, click on the drop-down menu that says ---Choose a layout.
From the drop-down menu, select Counter-Clockwise Rotate. Hovering over the small round icon with i written on it should open a pop-up information...
