Settings - Interactions module

The cog item opens the "Settings" panel in the right side menu. The settings panel allows you to alter the display settings of the various models. Depending on the page the settings that can be managed are different. Here you find the settings of the activity module.

Interaction - Network

Calculate Rank

The setting can be applied to the "Interaction rank" model on the right side of the dashboard. The ranking can be applied in two different ways:

• With emphasis on physical interactions: Number of interactions x the average of type x the average of importance.
• Without emphasis: Number of interactions x the average of importance

Scale

The scale setting has an impact on the thickness off the lines. In the absolute setting, bigger entities will have thicker lines because they will have more connections with other entities. But when you look at that in relation to the group size (relative) the results of smaller entities will have more impact. 

• Absolute: calculates the thickness of the line by using absolute connections.
• Relative: sets the connections in relation to the group size of the entities

Chart grouping

The chart grouping setting has impact on how the chart is visually grouped. When a community detection attribute has been created, you have the opportunity to group the chart by this community cluster attribute. This can provide a better overview of the communities within the population (than grouped by parents) in the value network graph.

Number of interactions

In this dropdown, you can choose the number of interactions that you would like to show in the "Interaction rank" chart on the right. Choose between: 10, 15, 20, or 25 most important activities.

Tension

The Tension setting has an impact on the lines that visualize the interactions between entities. With a higher tension, the lines will be centered on the other lines from the same parent. With a lower tension, they will be more widely spread and more direct to the other entity in the graph.
