Colour links between nodes in graph view depending on type of connection

What I’m trying to do

I’m trying to colour the links between nodes so graph view provides a quick overview of how they are connected. I managed to colour all the links using css snippets but now I want to differentiate using tags or some other suitable form of organisational tool, if possible keeping it as simple as possible like:

[[node1]] #tag1

With all the nodes between which a “tag1 link” has been established having the same custom colour.

Things I have tried

Searching the forum/google and establishing global link colour using css snippets.

AFAIK, there are no “link types” :thinking: …
There are directions (in and/or out), but no specific link types between nodes …
(There’s a plugin to set some though: Graph Link Types… and maybe others :sweat_smile: )

Generally speaking, I think the Graph view doesn’t allow much css customizations… and I don’t think what you’re trying to do is feasible… But I could be perfectly wrong :blush: .
(I don’t use the Graph view much :innocent: )

Thank you, Graph Link Types is exactly what I needed to get it working. Now I only need to figure out how to assign the colours myself.

It seems like the plugin Extended Graph would fulfill a similar role with even more customization but I didnt get it running for my purposes.
