Using Relationship Grids

Using Relationship Grids

Relationship Grids display connections between nodes in a matrix format — rows and columns represent nodes, and cells indicate whether a relationship exists.

Opening a Relationship Grid

  1. In the Tree View, right-click on a Relationship Type (e.g., "runs_on")
  2. Select Open Relationship Grid
  3. A matrix opens in the workspace

Reading the Matrix

  • Rows represent source nodes
  • Columns represent target nodes
  • A filled cell means a relationship exists between that source and target
  • An empty cell means no relationship exists

Creating and Removing Relationships

  • Click an empty cell to create a new relationship between the source (row) and target (column)
  • Click a filled cell to remove the relationship
  • Changes are applied immediately to the model

Tips

  • Relationship grids are excellent for understanding the overall connectivity of your model
  • Use them to quickly spot missing or unexpected connections
  • They work especially well for many-to-many relationship types
  • The grid only shows node types that have Allowed Connections for the selected relationship type
