Vertex label clipping #191

labelclipping

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that GraphPlot would accept vectors as labels for vertices. However if the vectors are greater than about 5-6 elements then clipping occurs. In my sample image the clipping is minor; in some of my efforts to use slightly larger vectors quite large chunks are missing. Note for example the clipping on the red node label.

Is it possible that in calculating the overall size of the display area the possibility of long vertex labels is not fully taken into account?

Very similar to #161. Resolved somewhat by juggling distance param.

@colbec, if you use my fork of the package you can specify a padding value to add a margin so the text is not clipped. This is in PR #186.
