I'm trying to draw a graph but i can't understand how to set the node size through the UI.

I've seen other graphs here (http://dhs.stanford.edu/dh/gephi/dhstanford2.html) that manage to do that.

I couldn't see how this is done. In comparison, inNodeXL there is column called Size, so it's not that difficult.

Yes, the 'how do resize the nodes' is a question i get the most probably because, the 'resize node' icon is not very iconic. Here is a screen shot of where you can find it as it is super hard to miss.

There is a "size" icon towards the bottom left of the main graph window in the GUI. If you right click on this icon, you will be able to set the default size for your nodes. Then, left clicking on this same icon will apply this default size to all nodes.

  • is there a way of setting the size of each node according to some parameter? – Ereli Feb 20 '14 at 16:33

    Yes, you'd use the ranking panel for that, making sure you select the "size ranking" mode (by clicking on the "red diamond kind-of-shape" icon within the ranking panel). There, you can choose a numerical attribute that will determine the size of your nodes. – seinecle Feb 21 '14 at 11:06
