"RadialEmbedding" (Graph Layout Method)

  • Vertex layout for GraphLayout.
  • Use radial embedding to lay out vertices of a graph.

Details & Suboptions

  • The radial embedding is a graph-drawing technique to position vertices of a graph on a circular segment.
  • The radial embedding is typically used to lay out tree graphs.
  • Possible settings to control the layout include:
  • "RootVertex" Automaticroot vertex
    "Rotation" Automaticlayout rotation

Basic Examples  (2)

Place vertices in concentric circles:

"RadialEmbedding" works best for tree graphs:

Options  (2)

"RootVertex"  (1)

Use the option "RootVertex"v to set the root vertex:

"Rotation"  (1)

Use "Rotation"r to rotate the layout:
