Beginners' Questions How to create a group of objects and node?

    I am trying to create a graph (the kind that has vertices and edges connecting those vertices). The vertices are ellipses and the edges are bezier curve connecting those vertices. Obviously, when I move a vertex, the edge doesn't change. I want to create a group that contains the entire ellipse object and one end node of the bezier curve, so that when I move that vertex, the node of the bezier curve moves along with it. Is it possible? If so, how and if not, what alternative do I have? Thank you.

    Maybe like so with Connectors?

    How can I make those connectors a bezier curve with arrows pointing from one vertex to another instead of straight lines ?

    You can add markers in the Fill+Stroke panel and it still updates translation:

    Why doesn't the bezier handle information not get stored? Once I move the ellipses, the connectors become straight again? How to keep the connectors to remain curvy?

    Maybe this method will help - but manually adjusted curvatures are likely not implemented:

    That was a great help :) Thank you very much.
