Changing the attributes of an existing edge in a graph


During the network analysis, there is often a need to modify the edges that are already present in the graph. The changes can be with respect to the attributes and properties of the edges such as edge label, color, and so on. In this recipe, we will learn how to edit the existing edges in the Data Laboratory mode.

How to do it…

The following steps describe how to change the attributes—such as color, label, weight, and so on—of an existing edge:

  1. Click on the Edges button in the top panel.

  2. Right-click on the edge to be edited to open up the menu list.

  3. In the menu, click on Edit edge. This opens up the Edit tab, as shown in the following screenshot:

  4. Click on the textbox against the property/attribute that you want to edit and enter the new value for that property/attribute. Hit Enter once done.
