Avoid Label overlapping in Gephi

Tags:

gephi

I have downloaded Gephi and I am using it presently in Windows. I have made the graph of my Facebook Network which has about 469 nodes and the problem I am facing is that I can't see the labels clearly. They are overlapping too much. Is there a way I can prevent it?

Basically Gephi is built to produce legible maps but when a network has over 1000 notes, it becomes hard to read as these labels overlaps to each other. If you want to avoid this issue then you have to use the “Label Adjust” functionality that is a one kind of algorithm. It helps you by avoiding label overlapping automatically.
