For a nontrivial connected graph $F$, the $F$-degree of a vertex $v$ in a graph $G$ is the number of copies of $F$ in $G$ containing $v$. A graph $G$ is $F$-continuous (or $F$-degree continuous) if the $F$-degrees of every two adjacent vertices of $G$ differ by at most 1. All $P_3$-continuous graphs are determined. It is observed that if $G$ is a nontrivial connected graph that is $F$-continuous for all nontrivial connected graphs $F$, then either $G$ is regular or $G$ is a path. In the case of a 2-connected graph $F$, however, there always exists a regular graph that is not $F$-continuous. It is also shown that for every graph $H$ and every 2-connected graph $F$, there exists an $F$-continuous graph $G$ containing $H$ as an induced subgraph.
