Overlay example

[vjktm]

Hi,
One of the screenshots is an example of a network overlayed on the map
of the USA. How do you get this in GUESS. I tried by importing nodes
with longitude and latitude as x, y but what layout model should I
use? Is there and "absolute" layout that just uses the node x, y
values as-is? How do you create the background map?

Check out the end of this:
http://guess.wikispot.org/Responding_to_clicks_and_other_code_bits.

basically the image gets placed at whatever size you have it (so if
it's 1024x768 it'll be at 0,0 with a width of 1024 and height of 768).
It's up to you to rescale your coordinates to fit the image.

There's dockexample5.py which takes care of scaling for you by asking
you where you want to place two points (you click on the image) and
then it rescales everything. At the very least, you can use this code
as a starting point.

good luck,

-E

E,
thank you! I will read those examples.

Thank you for creating this package. I am planning to use it in my
own network analysis tools to interact with the network visulization.
