CytoscapeJS network graph - Edges are not plotted

Question

I am facing a new issue with using CytoscapeJS. I have a network graph with 300+ nodes and 300+ edges in a JSON object (can rise to 500+ nodes & 1000+ edges in some cases).

The nodes are getting plotted using coLa layout but only the 1st 50 edges are shown. The rest of the edges are missing from the generated network despite my setting the "visibleDisplay" property to "element". How can I resolve this ? (or is there a limitation to the no. of edges that can be plotted in CytoscapeJS ?)

Note: I have been working on reproducing the issue for datasets of varying sizes and am strangely also getting the same error (i.e., some edges between nodes aren't plotted at all) for smaller datasets as well (just 30-40 nodes). Any suggestions anyone ? — Ajit Singh

For a small network graph with just 31 nodes, only 8 have edges plotted correctly despite the elements JSON file having no errors and specifying the source node, target node, node shape, colour, etc. correctly. Screenshot included below: enter image description here

A working example showing this error can be seen at jsbinCytoscapeJSEdgeError
