Create a Graph Node

Create a Graph node to visualize numerical date and relationships between numerical variables.

Follow these steps to create a Graph node:

  1. If it is not already open, open the Components window using View > Components. Select Workflow Editor.

  2. In the Workflow Editor, expand Data, and click Graph.

  3. Click; move the mouse to the workflow; click again. The Graph node is added to the workflow.

  4. Right-click the node that contains the data that you wish to graph. Select Connect from the context menu.

  5. Draw a line to the Graph node; click again.

  6. Double-click the Graph node or right-click the node and select Edit from the context menu.

    The first time that you edit a Graph node, you must generate sample data for the Graph node to use. The No Data dialog asks if you want to run the node to generate sample data. Click Yes.

    After the sample data generation completes, double-click the Graph node again or right-click the node again and select Edit from the context menu.

  7. If no graphs are defined, define a graph as described in New Graph Dialog.

    If a graph is defined, the Graphs Tab, so that you can add new graphs or edit existing graphs.

  8. After execution completes, view the results by right-clicking the node and selecting Show Graph from the context menu.

  9. You edit the an existing graph node to modify settings, type of graph and, even attributes. Either right-click the graph node and select Edit or double-click the node. In either case, the Graphs Tab opens. You can also add graphs to a node and delete graphs from a node.
