Set Node and Edge Sizes

Use the Size tab in the style setting dialog to select a property whose value is used to scale the Size of nodes of a category or the Bind Width of edges of a relationship.

The Node Size Scale and Edge Width Scale sliders in the project’s Settings subpanel sets the basic size of all nodes and edges, respectively.

In the simulated healthcare data shown below, we’ve scaled the size of Patient nodes by their numConditions property, that is, the number of separate conditions each patient has complained of.

To scale nodes or edges by a property value:

In the Legend click the brush icon for a category or relationship.
In the styling setting dialog:
- For a category, open the Size tab and select a property to be used to scale node size (e.g. Locations, and annualCrimes).
- For a relationship, open the Bind Width tab and select a relationship property (e.g. OCCURRED_AT, and the severity property) to scale edge widths.
  
  Size or Bind Width is available for any property, but a property with numerical values (rather than text) yields more meaningful visual results.

You can also scale node size or edge width in the Project panel’s Category or Relationship tabs:

For a category, click the Node Size checkbox for the property to be used to scale node size, and
For a relationship, click the Bind Width checkbox for the relationship property.
