Research direction

Start by reading issue #271 and the current v2.3.0 visualization API, with particular attention to the earlier SurfaceGraphQuantity approach. Determine whether the current release provides an alternative for displaying selected vertices or edges; done means documenting the supported approach or establishing that no replacement exists.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

My question is related to #271.

Previously (e.g., v1.3.0) using SurfaceGraphQuantity it was possible to visualize for example selected vertices or edges.

Is there another way of doing this in the current release (v2.3.0)?

Thank you!
