[SOLVED] no arrows with curved lines?

[kensuguro]

I have a directional graph where some of the nodes have both in and out connections. The edges have weights so I need to see the lables of both in and out bound connections, but the default straight arrows just go over each other. If I turn on curves, the overlapping problem is solved, but now I lose the arrows and lose directionality. Is there a way to change this? Why no arrows with curved lines anyway?

Also, is there a way to combine curved arrows with straight lines? Seems it's pointless to make unidirectional edges curvy.

here's the output image. The bidirectional edge is at the top right, between node C and B

Hi,

This is because the curve indicates the direction of the edge: read an edge clockwise from a source node to a target node.

It would be nice if someone could code this feature. It shouldn't be difficult to add.

Out of curiosity, is that some sort of standard? Or a Gephi convention?

It may be a standard:

So is it possible to export curved lines to QGIS?
