Show tag relationships between items in graph view

Describe the solution you’d like
Items in the graph view should show the tag relationships.

Edit by @sambouwer: All Relations should be visible with the options to filter the shown Relations either via a filter panel or by clicking a Relation to only show Relations of that same Type (i.e. hiding all other Relation Types)

Describe alternatives you’ve considered
The alternatives I’ve used so far are are to use “Linked Projects” as a way to create arbitrary relationships and force them to show up in the graph view.

Additional context
I’m sure there’s a more nuanced way to frame this request but I’m having a hard time determining which types of relations are supposed to be supported in the graph view. I’m guessing that at some point the intention is to support all types of relations on the graph view, but currently it’s a bit frustrating not know when it will or won’t work.

@GooRusa thanks for sharing this feature request. Would it be OK for you to generalize this request? I think it makes a lot of sense to (eventually) show all Relations in the graph. Maybe with the option to filter which kinds of Relations or Types you want to see to not be overwhelmed :wink: like this FR:

If you agree to generalize this FR, I would suggest to request:
“All Relations to be visible with the options to filter the shown Relations either via a filter panel or by clicking a Relation to only show Relations of that same Type (i.e. hiding all other Relation Types)”

Adjusted!

Hello everyone :nerd_face: We want to update graph experience and will try to address this request in upcoming updates. Current stage is design drafts.

Yes, tag relations are definitely important for me in graph view. I think it can show some relations between objects that we cannot see ourselves. What I would really like is also some kind of automating tagging, or something like that to create auto relations between different objects.

I just opened the graph view on desktop for the first time in a while and it looks like you can select any object to connect things to in the sub menu, I think this essentially covers the use case I described here. Thanks!

Organizing the graph based on the tags inside a relation would be outstanding!

Yes Please!
Im using a “Project”-Tag to organize and cluster All of my objects

So seeing clusters in Graph, connected to the same tag absolutely makes sense

I would love to see a tag in exactly the same color/format, as you can see this tag in the table view
This drastically increases recognizability
