Remove specific edgelabels in the plot of a graph

I would like to remove specific edgelabels in the plot of a graph. In particular, edgelabels that do not satisfy some conditions.

For example, in my graph plot function I have:

edgename=(1:7)';
active=[1 2];
passive=[4 5];
labeledge(p,edgename(~active|~passive),'');

p is the plot.

However, it doesn't work.

How can I do this?

Hi,

You can use a index array to specify which graph edges to have the edgeLabels. For example,

s = [1 1 1 2 2 3 4];
t = [2 3 4 2 5 6 7];
G = graph(s,t);
h = plot(G);

% edges that are not labled 
active = [1,2];
passive = [4,5];

edgesNotLabled = [active passive];

% create index array
idx = 1:numedges(G);
idx(edgesNotLabled) = [];
edgename=(1:7)';

% label remaining edges in idx
labeledge(h, idx, edgename(idx));

Thank you, but I would like to remove all indexes that are not related to active and passive elements

You could instead use 'edgesNotLabled' variable in the above code for labeling active and passive elements only.

labeledge(h, edgesNotLabled, edgename(edgesNotLabled));
