Log Graph-Building Operations

GraphEdit can log the steps it takes when building a graph. To set up graph logging, do the following:

1. On the File menu, click Set Log File....
2. In the Save As dialog box, enter the name of the log file.

When you are done using GraphEdit, you can view the file with a text editor.

The following is an excerpt from a typical log file:
