This plugin helps you customize the factors that effect node size in obsidian graph view. The factors include:

  • Letter count in a file.
  • Weight of links coming forward and/or backward out of a file.
  • Whether we should count every descendant coming forward out of a file or just the children.
  • You can manually add size for certain files too.
