GraphStyle

GraphStyle
is an option to Graph and related objects that specifies styles to use for the different graph elements.

MORE INFORMATION

Typical settings include: Automatic, , , etc.

gives a complete list of settings.

A GraphStyle setting contains base settings for the following options: EdgeShapeFunction, EdgeLabels, EdgeStyle, GraphLayout, VertexShapeFunction, VertexLabels, VertexShape, VertexSize, and VertexStyle, as well as all the supported Graphics options.

Direct settings of any of Graph options override base settings provided by GraphStyle.

Basic Examples (1)
