Description

Hi there,

I'd like to visualize the execution of a TSP algorithm on a graph. Therefore the nodes shouldn't move between iterations.
I'm looking for a way to create a graph without automatic layout where I create nodes with fixed positions.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the graph creation and layout APIs in this graph layout and viewing project; the issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Determine how callers can create nodes with fixed positions and prevent automatic layout from moving them between iterations. Done means a graph can be built for a TSP visualization while preserving those positions.
