This is a repeat of #12. Since that issue was closed with no explanation, I'm re-raising the issue.

In my scenario:

  • /talker publishes two topics: /TopicA & /TopicB
  • /listener subscribes to the same two topics /TopicA & /TopicB

rqt_graph looks great when in "Nodes/Topics" mode:

However, when in "Nodes only" mode, only one topic is shown:

In my opinion there are three possible ways to resolve this:
Option 1: Do not display topic names when in "Nodes only" mode
Option 2: Display multiple graph edges; one edge for each topic.
Option 3: Display a single graph edge, and list all topics on that edge

Leaving the implementation as-is is confusing, since it provides only partial information.
