Default Graph Display

Visualization of a Graph

The visualization display will show the graph in a new window or in a new tab of a previously created graph window.

Manipulating the Graph:

Toolbar Buttons

The toggle button, when 'set' will cause a focused vertex (red arrow) to be scrolled to the center of the view

The toggle button, when 'set' will allow the user to draw a free-form shape that encloses the vertices they wish to select.

The toggle button, when 'set' will open a satellite mini view of the graph in the lower right corner. The mini-view can be manipulated with the mouse to affect the main view

The button will reset any visual transformations on the graph and center it at a best-effort size

The toggle button, when 'set' will open a rectangular magnification lens in the graph view

  • MouseButton1 click-drag on the lens center circle to move the magnifier lens
  • MouseButton1 click-draw on a lens edge diamond to resize the magnifier lens
  • MouseButton1 click on the upper-right circle-cross to dispose of the magnifier lens
  • MouseWheel will change the magnification of the lens

The button will open a Filter dialog. Select buttons in the dialog to hide specific vertices or edges in the display. The Filter dialog buttons are created by examining the graph vertex/edge properties to discover candidates for filtering.

The Arrangement menu is used to select one of several graph layout algorithms.
