[SOLVED] Changing Edge Weights over Time

[shoshibell]

Hello

I've got a social network I would like to map over time where the strengths of relationships (Weight) changes year to year. However, when I import my edge list, Gephi groups the nodes into one weighting. How can I keep them as separate edge records?

I have my EdgeList set up like this right now:
Source Target Type Weight TimeInterval
5 11 Directed 1 <[2004.0, 2005.0]>
5 11 Directed 6 <[2005.0, 2008.0]>

Hi Sho,
You need to specify the edge in one line. So, your example would be:

Code: Select all

Source Target Type Weight 
5 11 Directed "<[2004.0, 2005.0, 1]; [2005.0, 2006.0, 6]>"

Add time interval if you need to, too.

But there is a small problem, read this thread first http://forum.gephi.org/viewtopic.php?t=1668, open the empty dynamic file, then import you data. We still need a button in the UI to convert weight to dynamic.
