Hi - First time 'poster!' - I am just having a play about with NodeXL at the minute and am wondering about the position of nodes within the graph (currently set on Fruchterman-Reingold). I am splitting the graphs from certain Twitter accounts into three different formats: one for 'followers/following,' one for 'mentions,' and one for 'replies.' The graphs are circular, why do some nodes appear closer to the main user in the centre than others? I gather that for 'followers/following' a mutual follower/following relationship corresponds to why people appear closer to the main user in the centre, but how are their positions determined?
Cheers,
Andy

Hi Tony,
That's a real shame - because what it looks like at the minute is that people are interacting with the groups that I'm looking at but not with each other - and I know that that isn't the case. Is there anyway to input it manually?
