 <h2>How to Visualise a Model Space?</h2>

 <p>In order to visualise a model space it has to be opened (if you are unsure
 how to do this there is a tutorial in the <a
 href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/VIATRA2/Basics">VIATRA wiki</a> web page).</p>

 <h2>Adding elements to the graph view</h2>

 <p>To create the graph the model elements used in the graph have to be chosen.
 This can happen by right-clicking an element, and selecting the <strong>Add
 Selected Subtree to the Graph View</strong> menu item.</p>

 <div class="image">
 <img src="images/addsubtree.png">

 <p>Selecting the subtree to add</p>
 </div>

 <div class="image">
 <img src="images/graph.png">

 <p>The visualised subtree</p>
 </div>

 <p>After the selection happened in a short time the graph appear in the
 <strong>Model Space Visualisation</strong> view (and the view opens if it was
 not open).</p>

 <p></p>

 <p><strong>Warning!</strong> If a lot of model elements are selected for
 inclusion, the addition process can hang the computer/Eclipse instance for
 quite a lot of time. To avoid this it is not recommended to select more than a
 few dozens of model elements.</p>

 <p></p>

 <p>For more details related to adding model elements to the graph view see: <a
 href="handling.html#elementselect">Selecting Model Elements</a>.</p>

 <h2>Using the Graph View</h2>

 <p>It is possible to alter the graph output after it is created. With the help
 of the mouse the nodes can be moved anywhere in the view, thus manually
 correcting the layout.</p>

 <p>In the view pulldown menu there are further options to select an automatic
 layout, hide some relationships, etc. These are described in detail in <a
 href="handling.html#view">View Related Settings</a>.</p>

 <p>It is also possible to save the created graph as a PNG image using the view
 dropdown menu.</p>

 <p>For more details related to customizing the graph view see: <a
 href="handling.html#view">View Related Settings</a> and <a
 href="configuration.html">Configuration</a>.</p>
