# Custom Node Position

Draw a graph with node(s) located at user-defined positions.

When a position is set by the user, the other nodes can still be neatly organised in a layout.

    import networkx as nx
    import numpy as np

    G = nx.path_graph(20)  # An example graph
    center_node = 5  # Or any other node to be in the center
    edge_nodes = set(G) - {center_node}
    # Ensures the nodes around the circle are evenly distributed
    pos = nx.circular_layout(G.subgraph(edge_nodes))
    pos[center_node] = np.array([0, 0])  # manually specify node position
    nx.draw(G, pos, with_labels=True)

Total running time of the script: (0 minutes 0.047 seconds)
