<td><i>Optional. </i> Before creating the new cluster node, this (optional) function will be called with the
properties supplied by you (<code>clusterNodeProperties</code>), all contained nodes and all contained
edges. You can use this to update the
properties of the cluster based on which items it contains. The function should return the properties to
create the cluster node. In the example below, we ensure preservation of mass and value when forming the
cluster:
