More intelligent customization of connection color of graph

[iLoner121]

for example I hope I can change the color of incoming links and outcoming links in the local graph view. That could make it much more useful

[Rauf]

I have a simple suggestion. Why don’t the arrows connecting the files have several different colors and several sizes. Let it be only three volumes (three levels). This helps to draw a better and deeper illustration of the topics and issues we are trying to study.

Coloured graph links based on activity

It would be cool in the graph view to have an option for the link line colour to be tied to the activity. Either overall times that link has been clicked or used or the activity in the past 30 days. Would be super useful for seeing the most important areas and links and also for people like me who work on projects linking to multiple days would be great to see where the activity in the last 30 days have been put towards.

I like the idea, it can be useful for a visual representation of my activity and areas of current interests. Like glowing of active areas of a brain on a scan.

I also wish to animate the links like small electrons are moving from one node to another. But I guess it would use memory for nothing because it would be just for fun

Hope you don’t mind, I merged these. They seem very similar. Coloring the graph links based on different criteria like number of links, manually with tags or groups, keywords, activity, etc.

Also relevant similar threads for more info:

Is there a way to have graph links with different colors?

Say I have three nodes A, B and C. Is it possible to have the link A-B as normal (gray), the link A-C in blue, and the link B-C in red?

Enhancements to Node, Link and Text on Graph View

I really think Obisidian could benefit for the graph from the amazing Org-roam project, which is open-source roam alternative for emacs. org-roam/org-roam-server: A Web Application to Visualize the Org-Roam Database Here’s a short video I recorded here’s a better .gif with more of it’s excellent features. (from the original repo) Most important features to use as inspiration: sidebar note quick hover preview different colors

Graph View: Colored clusters

In graph view, if you have clusters of notes that don’t share any connection, it would be great if they could be colored differently. Not sure if it’s possible to do this in the CSS directly?

And one based on node size: Graph View: Allow to Configure How Node-Size is Calculated

color linking would solve what I’m trying to do here

Conditional linking? Or separate linking tags?

Things I have tried Creating extra in between nodes What I’m trying to do Link based on conditions Say there are 3 people Jack, John, Jason I want to show different relationships among them. I want to show that Jack and John are friends, while John and Jason are foes. Jason and Jack are friends. Is there anyway to do that? It is like link and tags at the same time. I want to be able to: toggle friends, and it would only show links between Jack - John, Jack - Jason. toggle foes, and it …

Yes, definitely. The graph view looks like a flat grid. It would be great to be able to identify applying a color to incoming and outgoing nodes via the “New Group” feature.
