Changing Node Shape
Posted: 24 Feb 2017 16:42
Hi, I was wondering if there is ANY way of changing node shape in the current version.
I realize that this was a feature in an old version and has not been re-implemented yet (https://github.com/gephi/gephi/issues/1472).
I tried using an old plugin (https://marketplace.gephi.org/plugin/polygon-nodes/) but it gave me an exception (java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/gephi/preview/api/ProcessingTarget).
My company is very interested in using Gephi, but changing node shape is a big deal because without it there is only 2 ways of differentiating nodes - color and size.
Is there some kind of hack I can do to get this functionality? Maybe building old code that the Polygon plugin uses into a new jar that I can put in my modules folder? Is it possible to write my own plugin to achieve this?
