How to download the plot with white background? about kepler-mapper HOT 5 CLOSED

I'm also interested in a way to save the visualization (or a good approximation) as something friendly for including as a figure in a paper or report.

In the past, I just used screenshots to capture a png of the plot. Will this not work for you? Are you thinking something like an export as png button on the visualization?

The pull request #74 has an way of displaying the network using plotly. It's not completely merged right now, but if you can get that working, it will have ways of exporting the network. I'm planning on integrating the PR, but will probably be a while before it's ready.

Thanks, sauln. Yes, I am currently using screenshot to extract the image (after changing the html to my need). However, it would be great to have "export as png" option (preferably in white background). I will check out the pull request #74 and plotly you mentioned.

BTW, is there a way to change the node size in display?

Have a great day.

This is my fault (UI design).

You can use shortcuts for this:

[p] = "print mode"
[d] = "display mode"

[s] = "Christmas mode: the nodes light up/glow"
[c] = "Sober mode: the nodes are solid"

[m] = "Moon mode: The graph has less gravity"
[e] = "Earth mode: The graph looks normal"
[z] = "Zero gravity mode: Weird stuff"

Press "m" or "z" followed by "e" to sort of reset the graph. This results in a graph that sometimes looks nicer than the graph that is produced by random init. Then use "p" and "s" followed by "c" to get the most print-worthy graph for screenshots.

But this was undocumented. It also does not work on all browsers (I only tested in Chrome, and know that Safari fails).

Basically, just type: mzep and then take a screenshot:

@doerlbh There's no built in way of changing the node size. Pull requests are very welcome.

@MLWave pointed out those keyboard shortcuts. If you are using the development version that is currently on github master branch, the help menu provides some of this information.

I'm not sure that 'export as png' button would give you better facilities than using the 'p' key with a screenshot. Is it still necessary?
