Encircle Nodes in Force-Directed or Network Navigator Visuals

Any suggestions on how to encircle related nodes without connecting each of them together?

 

For example, I have a set of nodes related to category 1.  I want these category 1 nodes to be in close proximity with each other and surrounded by a circle but not connected.  However, the edges, links, or connections should be displayed between nodes of different categories (e.g., category 1 nodes connected to category 2 nodes or category 3 nodes).

    Hi,JaysYee Hello,amitchandak ,

    thanks for your concern about this issue.

    And I would like to share some additional solutions below

    I am glad that you have completed your data presentation with force-directed graph 2.0.2 and network navigator custom visuals.

    Here is some official information about force-directed graph 2.0.2 and network navigator, hope it can help you!

    For you mentioned that you want to keep the nodes sticky and not move in the visual settings, I have not found an effective solution for the time being, this is a feature of the visual design, you can try to contact Microsoft official and express their needs.

     



    I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.

    Best Regards,

    Carson Jian,
