Network Navigator does not show all links

Hello all,

I need a visual to represent the relations between people. I tried to use the Network Navigator Chart, but it is not showing all the links. 

The table that I am using has 3 columns: nodes1, nodes2 and level.

Assuming that A,B,C,D and E are people and the values represent the relationship level between each two people, I will have a lot groups of people with different levels for each pair. This is an example of a group that I have:

This is what I need (with all the links represented) for each group:

Can anyone tell what is the best visual for this or the solution to show all the links?

Thanks in advanced.

Hi @valcat27 

Network Navigator Chart should be able to meet your needs. I've done test with the data you provide. The result looks like this:

If I misunderstand your needs or you still have any question, please don't hesitate to let me known.

Hello @v-cazheng-msft,

 

Thank you for your answer.

I am sorry, perhaps I did not make myself clear.

This data is just an example to explain my problem. My real data can have thousands of links and consequently a lot of groups (not only one as in the example).

I do not know why, but sometimes some links are not represented in the visual. Do you know if there is a limit of links? It looks that the problem occurs when I have a lot of links. 

I also tried with links in both directions like this:

Moreover, If I build a table visual with the same data and I select a node in the graph, it is only shown in the table the links from one column. For example, if I select the node B, it is only shown the link B-A ("node1" column) and not the link E-B ("node2" column).

(picture2)

If I use my data with the links in both directions an I select a node, all the links for that node are shown in the table, independently if the selected node belongs to "node1" or "node2". However, If I do that, I am duplicating the information (and rows). 

I feel network navigator is not the most suitable visual for my data, but I do not know a better one.
