Re: cannot import xlrd (path problem?)

2009-10-25T13:14:46Z

Thanks for your reply Eytan. I expected that GUESS would have access
to any new library I added to python on my system. From what I gather,
GUESS has its own separate libraries that it uses? Is there a place
that I should put the Excel xlrd library? Or do I actually need to
port it over?

GUESS uses a somewhat old version of python (actually jython) which
does not necessarily have all the newest Python libraries. Some, you
may be able to port in...

new nodes using mouse click

2009-10-25T02:22:22Z

Hi everyone,

I'm new to using event handlers in general--especially in GUESS. I see
there are special events for mouse over a node.

But how about for mouse in canvas area but not over a node? This seems
to be the desirable prerequisite for adding a new node by mouse click.
How would I detect this situation and get the x,y location to put a

cannot import xlrd (path problem?)

2009-10-25T00:03:54Z

Hi folks,

I am having what I'm guessing is a path problem. If I type python at
the command line and then "import xlrd" I can import this library to
work with Excel spreadsheet files. If I do the same from the GUESS
console, it cannot find the library. Do I need to set an environment
variable?

Topology-aware navigation in large networks

I think the GUESS fans would like this article talking about new
features in a similar application, ZGRViewer

Re: explain the different layouts to me

Consider reading the published material for the Prefuse Flow Layout (pdf
file "flow_map_layout"). The materials include a description of graph
layouts that could be helpful to you. You can download the source code for
Prefuse - import it into Eclipse and execute several demos of different layouts

Problem of debugging event handler functions

2009-10-20T12:59:13Z

Hello,
I have written a script to respond to mouse clicks:

class test(java.lang.Object):
def init(self):
graphevents.clickNode= self.mouseClick

def mouseClick(self,_node):
self.myFunction()

def myFunction(self)
print "ok until here"

explain the different layouts to me

2009-10-19T18:05:11Z

I've done a quick search on this group and I've looked through the
Wiki. I'm new to graph theory, and I'm wondering if someone could
supplement the wiki material and explain to me in a nutshell what each
layout algorithm does. Why would I choose one over another? What are
the assumptions about the data that each layout makes? Are there any

Rserver 0.5-3 won't work with GUESS ver. 1.0.4 beta

2009-10-09T03:51:07Z

Hi,
I've been trying to use Rserve 0.5-3 with GUESS ver. 1.0.4 beta on
Ubuntu 9.10 beta, but I ended up getting the following result:
java.lang.Error: java.lang.Error: Handshake failed: The server uses more recent
protocol than this client. [request status: no error]
Is there any plan for GUESS to support the "recent protocol" above?

Adding functionality to Zotero via GUESS?

2009-10-08T13:57:13Z

Hi everyone,

I am hoping more experienced programmers and GUESS users may be able
to provide some guidance on a project I am planning. I am using
Zotero, a Firefox plugin, to keep track of bibliographic information
and organize PDF's of articles and book chapters. I would also like to
use it to write short notes about the documents. However, Zotero does

Fwd: [SOCNET] Network Workbench Tool 1.0.0 release

2009-09-23T15:49:33Z

Hi Everyone,
If you're interested in a tool that facilitates GUESS, try out the
Network Workbench. In it you'll notice that GUESS has an additional
panel to the interpreter called Graph Modifier. This was developed by
myself and Jeffrey Wong a couple years ago. I sent it to the Network
Workbench people, and I was pleasantly surprised to see it integrated.

If guess is a folder in applications i.e. the path is /Applications/guess/

Then you should be able to go to the terminal and
type: cd /Applications/guess/
and then type

./guess.sh

To start guess. If you need to retool your guess.sh file, replace the
text in there with this text:

Are you currently using a Mac, running System OS-X-4.11 ?
If so let know how you got it to run after it seemed to install.
