Hi All,

I appreciate if you can tell me how to visualize a network such that nodes with highest degree come to the front of network.
Attached is a supplementary figure from  Molecular Systems Biology 6:417   doi:10.1038/msb.2010.71   at which network is visualized as mentioned above.
I could visualize the nodes such that node size corresponds to node degree but i could not bring nodes with highest degree on the top of other nodes.

I appreciate your time and consideration.
Thank you in advance.

Best Regards,
Asmaa

Hi Asmaa,
I had some success using the Edge-Weighted Force-Directed (Biolayout) layout and scaling the network back to a more dense version.
Some nodes still overlap but this is the same in the figure attached.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Piet

Hi Piet,

How did you scale the network back to a more condensed version.

Thank you in advance

By using the scale option under the layout menu item, cheers
