I am using the GraphMakie to make graphs, it is working very well, but I wanted to know if there is a way to add scale to the graphs, similar to a scatter plot.
I tryed the documentation but did’t find anything about it.
Anyone have any idea how or if there is an alternative?
Thanks!

What do you mean with scale?
The only thing I can think of is a colorbar… in that case use
```julia
f, ax, p = graphplot(…)
pn = get_node_plot(p)
```
To extract the scatter plot object from the graph plot `pn`. You may then proceed as with every other scatter plot.

Hi,
Thanks for the answer, I migth not be explaining well so I’ll try to use will use an example table.
I have the following graph to make:
| from | to |
| --- | --- |
| 1 | 2 |
| 2 | 3 |
| 3 | 1 |
Each node have the following coordinate :
| node | x | y |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 1 | 5 |
| 3 | 5 | 1 |
| When I plot the graph it does not take in account the position of each node, so the final result is a circle (my data has 20 around nodes). I would like to have each node in it’s respective coordinate and have the final obtained graph ploted. | | |
| I hope it makes more sense now, as I’m not sure if graphs is the best option for this. | | |
| Hhanks! | | |

just do
```nohighlight
graphplot(ax, g; layout = _ -> positions)
```
a more complicated here: [Combine Makie with GMT.jl - #6 by lazarusA](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/combine-makie-with-gmt-jl/74347/6) shows this in action.
