Basic components

Graph view
For a description of the abbreviations and typeface used in the Graph view, please see Quick Reference.
The Graph view shows the results of cross reference queries. It always has one root symbol and extends from left to the right. The view shows either forward or backward references (indicated by arrow icons in nodes). The graph is filtered by the Filter settings. Each node in the Graph view represents a symbol. The type/access indicator string at the head of each node shows additional information about the type of the symbol and the kind of reference (see Access Indicators and Type Indicators).
Each symbol is expanded only once-- the graph is therefore actually a tree. A node that appears repeatedly in the tree is shown in italics to denote that this node has a probable expansion somewhere else. You can navigate to the expanded node by clicking it in the Symbol List.
Code view
References to the symbol selected in the Graph view are displayed in the read only Code view. To jump to the reference in the Source Editor,
<CTRL> double-click on the symbol in the Graph view.
Root Symbol field
You can directly enter a symbol name in the Root Symbol field. When you press
<Return> , the existing graph is reset and the entered symbol is placed as the new root symbol in the graph. After that, choose the appropriate reference command from the Info menu.
Symbol List
The Symbol List lists all nodes in the graph in alphabetical order. Multiple nodes in the graph are only shown once in the list. When a node is selected in the graph, the corresponding entry in the list is also selected and vice versa.
