Adjusting the node size in igraph using a matrix

Question

I have the following network diagram: ``` set.seed(1410) df<-data.frame( "site.x"=c(rep("a",4),rep("b",4),rep("c",4),rep("d",4)), "site.y"=c(rep(c("e","f","g","h"),4)), "bond.strength"=sample(1:100,16, replace=TRUE)) library(igraph) df<-graph.data.frame(df) V(df)$names <- c("a","b","c","d","e","f","g","h") layOUT<-data.frame(x=c(rep(1,4),rep(2,4)),y=c(4:1,4:1)) E(df)[ bond.strength < 101 ]$color <- "red" E(df)[ bond.strength < 67 ]$color <- "yellow" E(df)[ bond.strength < 34 ]$color <- "green" V(df)$color <- "white" l<-as.matrix(layOUT) plot(df,layout=l,vertex.size=10,vertex.label=V(df)$names, edge.arrow.size=0.01,vertex.label.color = "black") ``` and would like to adjust the size of the nodes using a matrix such as this: ``` m<-matrix(data=c(25,0,15,0,35,0,5,0,0,10,0,5,0,19,0,44), nrow=2, ncol=8) colnames(m)<-c("a","b","c","d","e","f","g","h") row.names(m)<-c("site.x","site.y") a b c d e f g h site.x 25 15 35 5 0 0 0 0 site.y 0 0 0 0 10 5 19 44 ``` Any sugestions how I go about this?

Accepted Answer

You could use

```
node.size<-setNames(c(25, 15, 35, 5, 10, 5, 19, 44),c("a", "b","c", "d", "e", "f", "g", "h"))
plot(df,layout=l,vertex.label=V(df)$names,
edge.arrow.size=0.01,vertex.label.color = "black",vertex.size=node.size)
```

so basically a named vector.

```
plot(df,layout=l,vertex.label=V(df)$names,
edge.arrow.size=0.01,vertex.label.color = "black",vertex.size=as.matrix(node.size) )
```

would also work

UPDATE:

If you need to use your `m` matrix

```
plot(df,layout=l,vertex.label=V(df)$names,
edge.arrow.size=0.01,vertex.label.color = "black",vertex.size=m[m!=0]) 
```
