To construct a graph we will not only need Nodes, but also Edges.
- Click on the Node using the left mouse button
- The Node's border should be highlighted in red
- Click on the button labeled Cause in the box labeled Create...
- You should see another Node and a directed Edge2 pointing from the newly created Node to the one already existing
The selection of any number of Nodes in the graph and then using one of the Create ... Cause Effect buttons will
- Insert a new Node into the graph
- Connect the new Node with each of the selected Nodes with an Edge
- 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.
- Add additional Causes and Effects to the graph
