Re: [igraph] generate graph with fixed coordinates

[Gábor Csárdi]

In graph theory, vertices are usually not placed at any positions. A graph only represents the relationships between them. Most of the graph-theoretical definitions and theorems do not consider vertex positions at all.

In igraph it is possible to attach attributes to vertices, see ?set.graph.attribute, so you can attach your coordinates and use them in your own functions, but most igraph functions will ignore them.

Not only for plotting. I want to create a topology in which  node are placed at specific position.
For example, I want to put node 1 at (1,1), node 2 at (2,2), ..., node 10 at (10, 10).

Hi, you mean plotting a graph? You can supply your coordinates in a two-column matrix as the 'layout' argument of plot(). Please read the manual pages 

?plot.igraph

?igraph.plotting

Dear all,

As a new user of igraph, I want to create a graph with specific coordinates, give coordinates as input parameters.
Can anyone give me a hint how to do this?
