Edge Attributes
Supported Edge AttributesEdge Attribute "OBJECT"
This attribute is used to set an
Edge Attribute "FONTFAMILY"
This is used to visualize the text of an edge label in a different font.
Supported values are: "lucida" (default), "times", "helvetica",
and "courier".
See node attribute
Edge Attribute "FONTSTYLE"
This is used to visualize the text of an edge label in a different font.
Supported values are: "normal", "bold" (default), "italic",
and "bold_italic".
See node attribute
EdgeAttribute "INFO"
This is used to define the
Edge Attribute "EDGECOLOR"
Can be used to define the color of an edge.
The value of this attribute can be any X11 colorname on UNIX®
and LINUX® platforms (see file lib/X11/rgb.txt in your X11 directory).
On all platforms, a RGB color specification in a format like "#0f331e"
can be used.
Here, "0f" is the hexadecimal value for the red part of the color,
"33" is the green part and "1e" is the blue part of the color.
Hence, a palette of 16.7 million colors is supported.
The default color for edges is "black".

Edge Attribute "EDGEPATTERN"This attribute is responsible for setting different style information of the edge. The syntax is more complicated than the other attributes. The string value of the attribute has 4 parameters, separated by ";". Namely:
where:
So, to visualize an edge using a solid, double-lined spline
with a width of 3 pixels, you use:
In former releases, the possible values for this attribute were "solid" (default), "dotted", "dashed", "thick" and "double". These old values are still supported for compatibility and are translated to the new style using the following conventions:
Edge Attribute "_DIR"This attribute is used to control the arrow of an edge. In a graph visualization, each edge usually has an arrow pointing to the child node. This attribute can be used to let the arrow be drawn inverse (i.e. pointing to the parent), to get an arrow at both sides of an edge or to suppress arrows for a particular edge. The supported attribute values are: "last" (1 arrow pointing to the child, default), "first" (1 arrow to the parent), "both" (2 arrows to the parent and to children) and "none" (no arrows). In former releases, the possible values for this attribute were "normal" (same as last, default), "inverse" (same as first), "both" (unchanged) and "node" (unchanged). These old values values are still supported for compatibility. Edge Attribute "HEAD"With this attribute you can control the shape of the edge's arrows. The possible values are: "farrow" (default), "arrow", "oarrow", "fcircle", and "circle", where a leading 'f' means filled and a leading 'o' means open. Edge Attribute for Pop-Up Menu
This attribute defines a pop-up menu for an edge.
This has to be done with a completely different syntax.
Instead of using "a(...,...)", menus are defined with "m(menus)".
