I'm conducting scientific research and need to render my graphs in a format suitable for publication. Will this feature be supported by Neoclipse in the near future?

My specific visual requirements are (1) display nodes with different coloring according to their labels or otherwise a specific property, such as 'type', and (2) size the nodes proportionally according to their degree (number of incident edges).

Do you recommend any alternatives?

Gephi plugin for Neo4j (v.1.0.2) does only seem to support up to version 1.5, moreover, Gephi is a pain to run on Mac OS X 10.9. I have also tried Cytoscape, but it is really cumbersome to manage, as I have to transform the database to a compatible format, such as GraphML, and the results so far are poor. Sigma.js looks very promising and I'm willing to give it a try.

Maybe have a look here http://www.neo4j.org/develop/visualize or ask in the Neo4j google group?
