Visualise overlapping groups? #406

Open CarlijnB opened 3 years ago

CarlijnB commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I'm working on a project where I'd need to visualise overlapping node groups in a network. Is this possible with visNetwork? My current solution is based on igraph (from this blog post, particularly this picture ). Can the coloured group "blobs" (containing overlapping node groups) be transformed into a visNetwork feature? Or is there any alternative way of showing overlapping node groups?

I'd like to use the visNetwork package as I really like its other features!

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Carlijn
