extract text_repel layer from netify plot components

extracts the text_repel layer from a netify plot components object. text repel labels display actor names with automatic repositioning to avoid overlaps, making them more readable in dense networks.

Usage

netify_text_repel(comp)

Arguments

comp

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

Value

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

Examples

# \donttest{
# create a netify object
mat <- matrix(c(NA, 1, 0, 0, NA, 1, 1, 0, NA), 3, 3,
    dimnames = list(c("alice", "bob", "carol"),
                    c("alice", "bob", "carol")))
net <- new_netify(mat, symmetric = FALSE)

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

# build custom plot with repelled text
library(ggplot2)
ggplot() +
    netify_text_repel(comp)

# }
