Visualizing relationships: Network widget

You can create a Network widget to allow analysts to quickly and easily identify relationships between related items and clusters, such as when visualizing a social network or displaying a market basket analysis. Attribute elements are displayed as nodes in the visualization, with lines (called edges) drawn between the nodes to represent relationships between elements. Once the visualization is created, users can view characteristics of the nodes and the relationships between them, using display options such as node size, edge thickness, and edge color.

You can also define Information Windows that display when a node is tapped. For instructions on creating an Information Window, see Providing additional information to users: Information Windows.

You can also use the Network visualization in dashboards. For information on creating analyses, refer to the MicroStrategy Web Help.
