draw_networkx_edge_labels¶

draw_networkx_edge_labels(G, pos, edge_labels=None, label_pos=0.5, font_size=10, font_color='k', font_family='sans-serif', font_weight='normal', alpha=None, bbox=None, horizontalalignment='center', verticalalignment='center', ax=None, rotate=True, clip_on=True)[source]¶

Draw edge labels.

Parameters

Ggraph: A networkx graph
posdictionary: A dictionary with nodes as keys and positions as values. Positions should be sequences of length 2.
edge_labelsdictionary (default=None): Edge labels in a dictionary of labels keyed by edge two-tuple. Only labels for the keys in the dictionary are drawn.
label_posfloat (default=0.5): Position of edge label along edge (0=head, 0.5=center, 1=tail)
font_sizeint (default=10): Font size for text labels
font_colorstring (default=’k’ black): Font color string
font_weightstring (default=’normal’): Font weight
font_familystring (default=’sans-serif’): Font family
alphafloat or None (default=None): The text transparency
bboxMatplotlib bbox, optional: Specify text box properties (e.g. shape, color etc.) for edge labels. Default is {boxstyle=’round’, ec=(1.0, 1.0, 1.0), fc=(1.0, 1.0, 1.0)}.
horizontalalignmentstring (default=’center’): Horizontal alignment {‘center’, ‘right’, ‘left’}
verticalalignmentstring (default=’center’): Vertical alignment {‘center’, ‘top’, ‘bottom’, ‘baseline’, ‘center_baseline’}
axMatplotlib Axes object, optional: Draw the graph in the specified Matplotlib axes.
rotatebool (deafult=True): Rotate edge labels to lie parallel to edges
clip_onbool (default=True): Turn on clipping of edge labels at axis boundaries

Returns

dict: dict of labels keyed by edge
