There is one other way to introduce Edges into a graph.
To connect two Nodes already in the graph
- Click and hold the left mouse button on one Node
- Drag the mouse to an other Node
- Release the left mouse button above the other Node
- A new Edge will have been drawn between the two Nodes
There is no visual feedback to indicate the beginning or the origin of the mouse draw gesture.
On a side note: There are no functions implemented for the right mouse button (no context menus) or keyboard shortcuts.
Now you have seen the basic graph drawing capabilities of the WBA Software Tool.
It will automatically layout the graph and you now know how to change the graph layout.
Some additional notes for beginners:
- After every step the changes that have been made to the graph will be saved.
- After having done a few graph manipulations try the Undo/Redo buttons.
Undo/Redo remembers all steps from either starting the software or activating a new project (which has not been discussed).
