Tagging
Kroket enables you to assign tags to nodes through the tags attribute of the node entity, see kroket's graph description language.
Then, you are able to filter (show/hide) the nodes which match a given tag.
From the command line :
- -w TAG, --with=TAG : show only nodes with the specified tag
- -W TAG, --without=TAG : show only nodes without the specified tag
From the user interface :
- Input a tag in the text entry and press the filter button. This will show only the nodes with the specified tag.
- Input a '!' followed by a tag in the text entry and press the filter button. This will show only the nodes without the specified tag.
Tracing
An edge has two states : it can be either full or partial.
The full state is activated when both nodes linked by the edge are visible/activated.
The partial state is activated when only one node is visible.
The switch from one mode to the other can be done by clicking on the edge.
From the command line :
- -t ID, --trace=ID : trace from the specified node
From the user interface :
- Left click on a partial edge will activate the node which was previously hidden.
- Left click on an full edge will deactivate the destination node of the edge and hide all the nodes below it.
- Left button double-click on a node : start tracing from this node.
- Input a node ID in the text entry and press the trace button. This will make the edges of this node switch to partial state.
Grouping
A group has two states : it can be either expanded or collapsed.
When displayed expanded, the group is shown as a background hull behind the nodes it contains.
When displayed collapsed, the group is show as a node and its content is hidden.
From the command line :
- -E, --expand-all : expand all the groups
- -e ID, --expand=ID : expand the specified group
- -C, --collapse-all : collapse all the groups (default)
- -c ID, --collapse=ID : collapse the specified group
From the user interface :
- Right button click on a group : switch the state (expanded / collapsed) of the group.
- Click on the expand all button to expand all the groups.
- Click on the collapse all button to collapse all the groups.
