Arguments

comp: a netify_plot_components object returned from plot(..., return_components = TRUE)

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

# build custom plot with nodes
library(ggplot2)
ggplot() +
    netify_node(comp)
} # }
