Description

Hi,

I'm enjoying the library so far, thanks to all contributors! After seeing a 3D permutahedron of 1,2,3,4 I was thinking about implementing it in GraphPlot but afaik it doesn't support 3D plotting. Anyone tried adding a third dimension to the plot with some panning/zooming for exploring such a 3d plot? Would this be hard to implement in GraphPlot.jl, what changes would be needed? Or anyone seen a different Julia library that might already be able to do this.

I think this could also help decluttering visualizations with more edges/vertices: more visualisation dimensions means more space to put things.

Kind regards,
Dieter

Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or a specific plotting entry point. Start by surveying GraphPlot.jl's existing 2D plotting implementation and its Julia visualization dependencies, then determine the scope of 3D rendering and pan/zoom interaction. Done would require an agreed design, implementation path, and documented validation for interactive 3D graph plots.
