Creating, Deleting and Changing Nodes in the Graph

From here on we will call the diamond a Node. There are other kinds of Nodes that have different shapes. If you click the same button a second time then another Node will appear right beside the first one. To construct a graph we will not only need Nodes, but also Edges.

The selection of any number of Nodes in the graph and then using one of the Create ... Cause Effect buttons will

  1. Insert a new Node into the graph
  2. Connect the new Node with each of the selected Nodes with an Edge
  3. The new Edges will always be pointing from an inserted Cause to a selected Node3 and vice versa.

To remove Nodes from the graph use the left mouse button plus the SHIFT key to highlightselect a number of nodes. A click on the button labeled ompletely in the box labeled Remove deletes the selected Nodes as well as all belonging Edges.
