Edge Color Based on Attribute (Weight)

kafkaesquire · Post by **kafkaesquire** » 06 Oct 2016 21:30

I'm using Gephi 0.9.1 and am attempting to color edges based on the weight attribute such that the edges will be colored based on the color gradient I specify. I've tried all of the spline configurations, but no matter what the edge colors are all one extreme or the other. I think this has to do with my weight values all being above 1, but I seem to remember being able to adjust a range in previous versions of Gephi. Has this feature been removed or moved? All I'm attempting to do is color the edges based on the weight attribute such that range of colors adequately depict the edge weights. Any suggestions regarding how to go about doing this in Gephi 0.9.1 would be much appreciated as I haven't had any luck researching this online. Thanks in advance!

I am having the exact same problem: the edge colors stick only to the extreme color of the gradient. I have tried changing the range of the weights to no effect. Any solution is welcome. Thanks!

I managed to make it work by changing the column name to something other than "Weight". Apparently, "Weight" does not work for edge coloring, but using an additional column with the same data and different name provides a workaround. This is probably a bug...

Not sure about this, it must be a bug. Can you report it at https://github.com/gephi/gephi/issues ?
