Here is some very rough I-just-learned-to-program python code which you can use to convert the kind of XML directed labeled graphs produced in VUEs own XML format.

People, if you have a better way of parsing VUE's XML into graphml - please fork this repo and show me how it's done!

• Converts all files under a given directory
• Translates node attributes: label, width, height, x position, y position, timestamp, fill and stroke.

You must provide the correct path:

for dirname, dirnames, filenames in os.walk('C:\Users\your\path\goes\here'):

This script not convert edge labels or links between edges. Also, it is recommended to format the resulting graph in yED using the Edit > Properties Mapper. Once opened in yED, map the data attributes to native yED ones.

• Beautiful Soup
• networkx

• Add labeled edges to .graphml formats (?)
• Drag 'n drop ?
