EdgeRenderingFunction

EdgeRenderingFunction
is an option for GraphPlot and related functions that gives a function to generate the graphics primitives to use in rendering each edge.
MORE INFORMATION
  • EdgeRenderingFunction->g specifies that each edge should be rendered with the graphics primitives given by , where , are the beginning and ending points of the edge, , are the beginning and ending vertices, the is any label specified for the edge.
  • The graphics primitives obtained by applying EdgeRenderingFunction are in effect directly spliced into the graphic generated by a function like GraphPlot. Inset can be used to insert an arbitrary expression.
