Ubigraph: dynamic graph visualization

• lunchbox 18y ago
  This looks extremely impressive. Note, however: "The Ubigraph server is not yet ported to Windows. We hope to release a Windows version in the future. Note, however, that you can run the server on a Mac or Linux machine, and run the client on a windows machine. You only require a functioning XMLRPC implementation on the Windows machine." That's too bad; from the looks of it, this is nicer than yEd, my favorite graph drawing program: http://www.yworks.com/en/products_yed_about.html http://www.yworks.com/en/products_yed_about.html This seems similar to Graphviz, since it has a programmatic interface (and no GUI for creating graphs, apparently): http://www.graphviz.org/ http://www.graphviz.org/ Here's an example language interface to Graphviz: https://networkx.lanl.gov/wiki/pygraphviz https://networkx.lanl.gov/wiki/pygraphviz

    > ... not yet ported to Windows ... You have glimpsed the future my friend! :) Props to the original poster for the link, I've been looking for stuff like that.

    I would tell you to stop using Windows. But I won't. ...because you and I might be competing in the same space.

  this is extremely awesome. I've wanted this sort of functionality for a while to animate the evolution of some of my graphs like http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/AutomataGenerativeNetworks1/ http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/AutomataGenerativeNetworks...

  Brilliant. I've been playing with a dataset of programming language influences but getting disappointing results from graphviz. With a few lines of code I was exploring the graph in 3d. (Screenshot: http://www.paulbutler.org/ubigraph.png http://www.paulbutler.org/ubigraph.png ) I haven't figured out directional edges yet (only had a few minutes), but that will be interesting as well.
