Re: [igraph] error plotting A graph with attributes example

[Jarrett Byrnes]

After a good deal of fiddling, it appears the problem is having a vertex attribute called "name".  Instead, if you change it to names (and use V(g)$names thereafter) and then in the tkplot statement, use

tkplot(g, layout=layout.kamada.kawai, edge.color=E(g)$color, labels=names(ids))

for short names or

tkplot(g, layout=layout.kamada.kawai, edge.color=E(g)$color, labels=V(g)$names)

for long names, you're all good.

This should be changed in the tutorial.
