output formatting - Differently colored edges of same direction in a graph?


When I try to color edges in a graph that point to different vertices, it works properly:


Graph[{Style[DirectedEdge[1, 2], Red], Style[DirectedEdge[2, 3], Blue]}]


enter image description here



However, if I try to give different colors to two edges that involve the same vertices, it does not seem to work properly:



Graph[{Style[DirectedEdge[1, 2], Red], Style[DirectedEdge[1, 2], Blue]}]


enter image description here



We see that only one of the colors is registered. How should I apply the coloring properly in this case?



Answer



Modifying the answer in this Q/A:


styles={Red, Blue, Green, Orange};
i=1;

Graph[{a->b,a->b,a->b, a->b}, EdgeShapeFunction->({styles[[i++]],Arrow@#}&)]

Mathematica graphics


Update: dealing with more general cases


Needs["GraphUtilities`"]

styles1 = {Red, Blue, Green, Orange};
styles2 = { Purple, Cyan, Pink};
labels1 = {"A", "B", "C", "D"};
labels2 = { "E", "F", "G"};


Module[{i=1,j=1,i2,j2}, Graph[{a->b,a->b,a->b, a->b, a->c,c->a,b->c,b->c,b->c, b->a},
EdgeShapeFunction->{(a->b)->({styles1[[i2 = i++]], Text[labels1[[i2]],
LineScaledCoordinate[#, 0.5]], Arrow@#}&),
(b->c)->({styles2[[j2 = j++]], Text[labels2[[j2]],
LineScaledCoordinate[#, 0.5]], Arrow@#}&)}, VertexLabels->"Name"]]

Mathematica graphics


Module[{i = 1, j = 1, i2, j2}, 
Graph[Join[(Property[#, EdgeShapeFunction -> ({styles1[[i2 = i++]],

Text[labels1[[i2]], LineScaledCoordinate[#, 0.5]],
Arrow@#} &)] & /@ {a -> b, a -> b, a -> b}),
(Property[#, EdgeShapeFunction -> ({styles2[[j2 = j++]],
Text[labels2[[j2]], LineScaledCoordinate[#, 0.5]],
Arrow@#} &)] & /@ {e -> b, e -> b, e -> b}), {a -> e, e -> c, c -> e, a -> c}],
VertexLabels -> "Name",
EdgeStyle -> {(a -> c) -> Dashed, (a -> b) -> DotDashed ,
(e -> c) -> Directive[Dotted, Green]},
ImageSize -> 500] ]

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...
