networkx.drawing.layout.circular_layout¶
-
circular_layout
(G, scale=1, center=None, dim=2)[source]¶ Position nodes on a circle.
Parameters: - G (NetworkX graph or list of nodes) – A position will be assigned to every node in G.
- scale (number (default: 1)) – Scale factor for positions.
- center (array-like or None) – Coordinate pair around which to center the layout.
- dim (int) – Dimension of layout. If dim>2, the remaining dimensions are set to zero in the returned positions.
Returns: pos – A dictionary of positions keyed by node
Return type: Examples
>>> G = nx.path_graph(4) >>> pos = nx.circular_layout(G)
Notes
This algorithm currently only works in two dimensions and does not try to minimize edge crossings.
