draw_networkx_edge_labels#
- draw_networkx_edge_labels(G, pos, edge_labels=None, label_pos=0.5, font_size=10, font_color='k', font_family='sans-serif', font_weight='normal', alpha=None, bbox=None, horizontalalignment='center', verticalalignment='center', ax=None, rotate=True, clip_on=True)[source]#
Draw edge labels.
- Parameters:
- Ggraph
A networkx graph
- posdictionary
A dictionary with nodes as keys and positions as values. Positions should be sequences of length 2.
- edge_labelsdictionary (default=None)
Edge labels in a dictionary of labels keyed by edge two-tuple. Only labels for the keys in the dictionary are drawn.
- label_posfloat (default=0.5)
Position of edge label along edge (0=head, 0.5=center, 1=tail)
- font_sizeint (default=10)
Font size for text labels
- font_colorstring (default=’k’ black)
Font color string
- font_weightstring (default=’normal’)
Font weight
- font_familystring (default=’sans-serif’)
Font family
- alphafloat or None (default=None)
The text transparency
- bboxMatplotlib bbox, optional
Specify text box properties (e.g. shape, color etc.) for edge labels. Default is {boxstyle=’round’, ec=(1.0, 1.0, 1.0), fc=(1.0, 1.0, 1.0)}.
- horizontalalignmentstring (default=’center’)
Horizontal alignment {‘center’, ‘right’, ‘left’}
- verticalalignmentstring (default=’center’)
Vertical alignment {‘center’, ‘top’, ‘bottom’, ‘baseline’, ‘center_baseline’}
- axMatplotlib Axes object, optional
Draw the graph in the specified Matplotlib axes.
- rotatebool (default=True)
Rotate edge labels to lie parallel to edges
- clip_onbool (default=True)
Turn on clipping of edge labels at axis boundaries
- Returns:
- dict
dict
of labels keyed by edge

>>> G = nx.dodecahedral_graph() >>> edge_labels = nx.draw_networkx_edge_labels(G, pos=nx.spring_layout(G))
