GravitationalMass Method

The function GravitationalMass returns the mass of the point representing the ForceDirectedVertex node. A node L is acted upon by forces in the X and Y directions of magnitude GravitationalFieldX(L.position) * GravitationalMass(L) and GravitationalFieldY(L.position) * GravitationalMass(L).

Syntax

protected virtual double GravitationalMass( 
   ForceDirectedVertex v
)

Parameters

v

Return Value

Returns the mass of node, normally the value of DefaultGravitationalMass, unless the value of ForceDirectedVertex.Mass had already been set, in which case it just returns that value.
