This really would make this plugin a lot more valuable. In many cases, a user is using the force directed algorithms to structure their graphs, so weights are a similarity metric rather than a distance metric. In my case, I'm creating a network graph of my 23AndMe relatives with the edge weights being how much DNA is shared between each of the people (nodes). I was still able to use your tool, but I had to go into my code that was generating the graph and apply and invert my mapping which makes the graph useless for anything else I want to do with it.
Hi @nichogenius! That's a really cool use of a spanning tree! I agree, it would be great if the plugin made it easy to find the maximum spanning tree without transforming edge weights. I won't have time to attempt this for another few weeks. It's helpful to know what is important to users when I return to developing it. Thanks for voicing support for this feature.
Sometimes users want to find the maximum spanning tree without transforming their edge weights. This could be selected in the dialog presented to the user before running the algorithm.
