 ## New features
 
 * Allow visualization based only on relationship DataFrames, without specifying node DataFrames in `from_dfs`
-* Add relationship properties to `VisualizationGraph` when constructing via `from_gds`.

 Further you can change the layout of the graph using the ``layout`` parameter, which can be set to one of the following values:
 
-* ``Layout.FORCE_DIRECTED`` - Nodes are arranged using the Force-Directed algorithm, which simulates physical forces
-* ``Layout.HIERARCHICAL`` - Arranges nodes by the directionality of their relationships, creating a tree-like structure
+* ``Layout.FORCE_DIRECTED`` - Nodes are arranged using the Force-Directed algorithm, which simulates physical forces. To customize the layout, use `ForceDirectedOptions` via `layout_options`.`
+* ``Layout.HIERARCHICAL`` - Arranges nodes by the directionality of their relationships, creating a tree-like structure.  To customize the layout use `HierarchicalLayoutOptions` via `layout_options`.`
 * ``Layout.COORDINATE`` - Arranges nodes based on coordinates defined in `x` and `y` properties on each node.
 
 Another thing of note is the ``max_allowed_nodes`` parameter, which controls the maximum number of nodes that is allowed
