Description

There are 2 ways to create a layer: via query and via the right-click context menu. At the moment though you can also do both in the same layer and this has presented a bug. If you have a query of a particular graph element type and then use the context menu to add the same kinds of graph elements to the layer, a union is done of the query and context menu elements. If on the other hand you have a query of a particular graph element and different graph elements added via context menu, the context menu elements only appear if there also exists a query of the same type of graph elements.

This is probably the best way to demonstrate it (also see gif below):

• Nodes added via context menu -> context menu nodes show up in layer
• Nodes added via context menu and vertex query added -> context menu nodes show up in layer
• Nodes added via context menu and vertex and transaction queries added -> context menu nodes show up in layer
• Nodes added via context menu and transaction query added -> context menu nodes DO NOT show up in layer

Steps to Reproduce

1. Follow steps of gif below (note context menu elements already added to the layer

Expected behaviour: Either graph elements added via context menu are visible even if only a query of the other graph element type is added, or it should be impossible for a layer to be generated using both a query and via context menu

Actual behaviour: Graph elements added via context menu not visible if only a query of the other graph element type is added

Reproduces how often: 100%

Additional Information

This gif demonstates the issue. Note that Vertex 1 was already added via the right-click context menu and is not a part of the result set of the vertex query.
