Manipulating the graph: Edge Grouping

Edge grouping is a feature that allows users to group parallel edges sharing the same type to make visualisations more readable.

Example: Consider the following visualisation, we would like to group all the edges which has the type INVESTED_IN.

The Edge grouping panel can be accessed by clicking on the following Icon on the right top of the screen.

The Edge grouping panel will open with the different edge types to group, in our example INVESTED_IN and HAS_MARKET.

By clicking (enabling) the INVESTED_IN button we will see that all the parallel edges with the same direction of that type are grouped in the visualisation as in the following figure.

Please note that the number in the caption appearing next to the edge type indicates the number of edges within that group.
