Vertex

In Vertex, can nodes in a graph be colored based on the number of links to a specific object?

At the moment, Vertex does not provide a direct method for achieving this. The application supports styling by derived properties, which only consider the object(s) being styled as input.

How can I automatically update a graph with a new node when a new object is added to the backing dataset?

You can make a graph template and embed it in a Workshop module, passing an object set containing all the objects of the type to the graph so it regenerates automatically. Alternatively, you can rerun the template manually in standalone mode.

Can a graph be directly copied as-is to a subgraph in Vertex?

No, this is not currently supported.

Is it intended that an action triggered on Vertex save in Workshop does not display a dialog box for additional parameter input?

Yes, it is intended that no action form will be shown to the user if all required parameters are configured with a defined default value.

What should a function return in Vertex to apply color to a node in Vertex?

You can choose the return type of your function, and then in the Layers panel you would define a mapping between the returned value and a color.

How can I embed a Vertex graph in a Workshop application that takes a single object as an input and expands to all of its linked objects of a specific type, reflecting a parent-child relationship?

You can write a function to do a breadth-first search recursively, and then use that function in the Configure Search Arounds step of the template.
