Update: Some progress — I converted the network to a geodataframe and filtered it by the "name" column, it feels very awkward yet and I'm not sure what I'm doing.
I can convert a #osmnx graph to a #GeoDataFrame, just edges, and select named edges. But then I can't convert them back to a network (because I don't have nodes? Because I'm using the wrong methods?)
Can I plot the gdf together with the graph? Maybe I should learn to extract the nodes?
I can see some shapely geometry inside the dataframes, I wish I could convert/project it's coordinates to meters and then to some "screen coordinates" so I can draw them myself with #py5 instead of matplotlib (I never use matplotlib so I'm perpetually confused by it).
And don't worry if you can't help me much with this...
Update: I learned how to get the gdf (edged, nodes) tuple and I can highlight the selected street :)
