Description

Hello, first I would like to thank everyone who works in this project before I ask my question. Thank you.

I require that in editing mode, my subgraph nodes move with the subgraph boundaries in Rectilinear EdgeRoutingMode as they move in SugiyamaSplines. As shown in the gif below they stay in their position when I move the subgraph boundaries in Rectilinear instead of moving along with it. Is this a bug or intended? If intended, how can I tweak it to move as I want?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported editing behavior with Rectilinear EdgeRoutingMode and compare it with SugiyamaSplines using the linked GIF as the expected interaction reference. Trace how subgraph boundaries and nodes are moved, then determine whether the behavior is intended or identify the relevant configuration or change needed for nodes to follow their boundaries.
