Node labels in plots

[mohammedsaqr]

When plotting the dynega network, all nodes come with the redundant ".Ord1" added to each label, I understand the importance of this for some, but for others, it may not be that intuitive, is there a way to remove it, or better use custom node lables.

Hi @mohammedsaqr,

Because {EGAnet} uses {GGally}'s ggnet2 plotting system, you can easily adjust most plotting parameters: https://briatte.github.io/ggnet/

Here's an example in {EGAnet}:

# Population structure
simulated_population <- dynEGA(
  data = sim.dynEGA, level = "population"
  # uses simulated data in package
  # useful to understand how data should be structured
)

# Plot
plot(simulated_population)

# Update labels
plot(
  simulated_population,
  node.label = gsub( # or your labels here
    ".Ord1", "", colnames(
      simulated_population$dynEGA$population$network
    )
  )
)

Using the node.label argument will update the node labels to your desired labels
