Extract edges layer from netify plot components

Source: R/plot_helpers.R
netify_edge.Rd

Extracts the edge layer from a netify plot components object, allowing for manual plot construction and customization. This function is part of the modular plotting system that enables fine-grained control over network visualization elements.

Usage

netify_edge(comp)

Arguments

comp

A netify_plot_components object returned from plot(..., return_components = TRUE)

Value

A custom object of class "netify_edge" that can be added to a ggplot object using the + operator. The object contains the edge layer with all its aesthetic mappings and data.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# create a netify object
net <- netify(my_data, actor1 = "from", actor2 = "to")

# get plot components
comp <- plot(net, return_components = TRUE)

# build custom plot with edges
library(ggplot2)
ggplot() +
    netify_edge(comp)
} # }
