Size Attribute

   
  • A numerical attribute loaded from the data, whose value type was specified as integer or decimal.
  • A dynamic attribute which usually have numeric values.
  • Constant:  Indicates that all halos should have the same size rather than being proportional to a particular attribute.
     
  • The size of images displayed in the node label will be proportional to the Size Attribute * Multiplier.

Multiplier

 
 
The multiplier value is applied to the size attribute to establish the size of the node halo.
The multiplier slider is proportional to an exponent of the multiplier value.  Moving the slider left to right changes the multiplier value from 0.001 to 0.1 to 10 to 1,000
