C kwarg failing in spring_layout

[SimonEnsemble]

the following code fails:

# make a graph with three connected components
graph = SimpleGraph(9)
add_edge!(graph, 1, 2)

add_edge!(graph, 3, 4)
add_edge!(graph, 3, 5)
add_edge!(graph, 4, 5)

add_edge!(graph, 6, 7)
add_edge!(graph, 7, 8)
add_edge!(graph, 8, 9)

loc_x, loc_y = spring_layout(graph, 97339, C=2.0)

with the error:

MethodError: no method matching setindex!(::Int64, ::Float64, ::Int64)

    var"#spring_layout#2"(::Float64, ::Int64, ::Float64, ::typeof(GraphPlot.spring_layout), ::LightGraphs.SimpleGraphs.SimpleGraph{Int64}, ::Int64, ::Vector{Float64})@layout.jl:158
    top-level scope@Local: 2[inlined]

but works just fine when I omit the C=2.0. (I am setting the random seed as 97339.

@SimonEnsemble this is fixed in PR #186. However, if you need to make plots where you set the seed, just use GraphMakie (since it is not clear if this PR will be merged at any point):

using Graphs, GraphMakie
using GraphMakie:Spring

graph = SimpleGraph(9)
add_edge!(graph, 1, 2)

add_edge!(graph, 3, 4)
add_edge!(graph, 3, 5)
add_edge!(graph, 4, 5)

add_edge!(graph, 6, 7)
add_edge!(graph, 7, 8)
add_edge!(graph, 8, 9)

graphplot(graph,layout=Spring(seed=97339,C=2.0))

If you just want the locations then run,

loc_x, loc_y = Spring(;C=2.0,seed=97339)(graph)
