public class IlvGrapher
extends IlvManager
```
IlvGrapher is a subclass of IlvManager that uses graphic objects in the form of nodes and links to represent dynamic interconnected information. Application areas include network management, database visualization and knowledge engineering, circuit block diagrams, workflow and process diagrams, organizational charts.
Overview

A grapher is composed of nodes and links. A node is an instance of IlvGraphic or one of its subclasses; any graphic object can be used as a grapher node. A link is an instance of IlvLinkImage or one of its subclasses. Links are the visual representation of connections between nodes.
To add a node to a grapher, call addNode. Links are added by calling addLink. When a node is removed from a grapher, all the links connected to this node are removed.
A new link is connected to the default connection point of each node it is attached to. When the location of a node changes, the connection points of the links are recomputed automatically. For more information about connection points, see Connection Points.

Example

The following code example shows how to connect two nodes in a grapher with a link:
```
  IlvGraphic node1, node2;
  IlvGrapher grapher = new IlvGrapher();
  IlvLinkImage link;
  
  // Create new ellipse node and add it to the grapher.
  node1 = new IlvEllipse(new IlvRect(30,10,50,50), true, false);
  grapher.addNode(node1,false);
  
  // Add a new rectangular node to the grapher.
  node2 = new IlvRectangle(new IlvRect(220,80,50,50), false, true);
  grapher.addNode(node2, 2, true);
  
  // Link the two nodes and add them to a grapher.
  link = new IlvLinkImage(node1, node2, true);
  grapher.addLink(link,false);
  
  // Add the manager to different views.
  IlvManagerView view = new IlvManagerView(grapher);
  view.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
  
  JFrame frame = new JFrame("IlvLinkImage");
  frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout(2, 2));
  frame.getContentPane().add(view);
  frame.setSize(320,200);
  frame.setVisible(true);
 
```
The following image shows the grapher created between in the code example:

Visibility

By default, nodes and links visibility is controlled independently. You can switch on or off the visibility of the nodes and links that compose a branch of a grapher by calling setVisibleBranch(IlvGraphic, int, boolean, boolean). For more information, see Visibility.

Nested Graphers

A grapher embedded inside another manager or grapher, is called a nested grapher. Like top level graphers, a nested grapher can be displayed in several different views simultaneously.
A nested grapher has two different representations:
- expanded, all objects contained in the subgrapher are visible
- collapsed, the grapher is drawn with a collapsed representation
Using nested graphers you can create applications that define graphs containing subgraphs, with links crossing the graph boundaries. Links that cross graph boundaries are called intergraph links. Call getInterGraphLinks() to retrieve the intergraph links stored in this grapher with an origin or destination node in another grapher. Call getExternalInterGraphLinks to retrieve the intergraph links stored in another grapher whose origin or destination node is stored in this grapher.

Events and Interactive Behavior

IlvGrapher is a subclass of IlvManager and inherits all the manager mechanisms for handling user events and supplying interactive behavior. For more information, see Handling Events and Setting Interactive User Information./

```
public final IlvGraphicEnumeration getLinksVisibleFrom(IlvGraphic node)
```
    Returns an enumeration of all the links that have the input node as visible origin node. This means, link.getVisibleFrom() == node.
    Some links on the screen appear to be connected to the input origin node when the input node is a collapsed grapher. In reality, the connection is not to the collapsed grapher but to a node currently invisible nested inside the collapsed grapher. Hence, this method returns all links that are really connected to the origin node, and additionally all links that appear visually connected to this origin node if it is a collapsed grapher.
    To be precise: this method returns all non-intergraph links starting from the input origin node. Furthermore it returns all intergraph links starting from the input origin node that don't go beyond the border of any collapsed grapher. Furthermore, if the input node is a collapsed grapher, it returns all tree external intergraph links of the collapsed grapher that don't go beyond the border of any other collapsed grapher. Going beyond the border of a collapsed grapher means that the node is recursively nested in subgraphers, one of these subgraphers is collapsed and the destination node of the link is not nested inside, hence outside the collapsed grapher.

```
    Returns an enumeration of all the links that have the input node as visible destination node. This means, link.getVisibleTo() == node.
    Some links on the screen appear to be connected to the input destination node when the input node is a collapsed grapher. In reality, the connection is not to the collapsed grapher but to a node currently invisible nested inside the collapsed grapher. Hence, this method returns all links that are really connected to the destination node, and additionally all links that appear visually connected to this destination node if it is a collapsed grapher.
    To be precise: this method returns all non-intergraph links ending at the input destination node. Furthermore it returns all intergraph links ending at the input destination node that don't go beyond the border of any collapsed grapher. Furthermore, if the input node is a collapsed grapher, it returns all tree external intergraph links of the collapsed grapher that don't go beyond the border of any other collapsed grapher. Going beyond the border of a collapsed grapher means that the node is recursively nested in subgraphers, one of these subgraphers is collapsed and the origin node of the link is not nested inside, hence outside the collapsed grapher.

If the specified graphic object has been added to the grapher using the addObject method, this object is not considered as a node of the grapher and it cannot have links. After calling this method, the object will be considered as a node.
    
    Parameters:
    
    obj - The graphic object.

    unmakeNode(ilog.views.IlvGraphic)
  - unmakeNode
```
public void unmakeNode(IlvGraphic obj)
```
    Allows a graphic object that was added as a node to become a regular object. This is the inverse operation of makeNode(ilog.views.IlvGraphic). If the specified graphic object has been added to the grapher using the addNode method, this object is considered as a node of the grapher. After calling this method, the object will no longer be considered as a node. You can call this method only if the object has no incident links.
    
    Parameters:
    
    obj - The graphic object.

  - getSelectedMovingObjects
```
public IlvGraphicEnumeration getSelectedMovingObjects(boolean[] flags)
```
    Returns the selected objects that should be moved by the select interactor.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getSelectedMovingObjects in class IlvManager
    
    Parameters:
    
    flags - The flags of the select interactor that control what should be moved. If flag[0] is true, the links are moved if both end nodes are selected.

  - isCrossingAwareLinksFrozen
```
public boolean isCrossingAwareLinksFrozen()
```
    Returns whether all crossing aware links of this manager are frozen. If it returns true, trying to reshape these links has no effect anymore. This method is part of JViews internals. You should not use it.

  - setVisibleBranch
```
public void setVisibleBranch(IlvGraphic node,
                             boolean visible,
                             boolean origin)
```
    Shows or hides a branch that originates from or has as destination the input node.
    The argument node must be a node stored in this grapher. If the argument origin is true, it shows or hides the branch that originates from node. Otherwise, it shows or hides the branch that has node as destination.
    The method calls setVisibleBranch(IlvGraphic, int, boolean, boolean) passing 0 as the level argument.

```
    Shows or hides a branch that originates from or has as destination the input node, starting at level levels away from node.
    The argument node must be a node stored in this grapher. If the argument origin is true, it shows or hides the branch originating from node. Otherwise, it shows or hides the branch that has node as destination.

                             boolean includeTreeExtIntergraphLinks)
```
    Shows or hides a branch that originates from or has as destination the input node, starting at startLevel levels away from node until at endLevel levels away.
    The argument node must be a node stored in this grapher or any of its subgraphers. This node has level 0, and all nodes directly reachable by one link from this node have level 1, and so on. It shows or hides the nodes between startLevel and endLevel (exclusive, that is, specifying start level 2 and end level 5 shows or hides the nodes and links at level 3 and 4). If the endLevel is negative, it is ignored, that is, it hides all of the branch starting at startLevel.
    If the argument origin is true, it shows or hides the branch originating from node. Otherwise, it shows or hides the branch that has node as destination.
    At a node, we have normal links and intergraph links. If the node is a subgrapher, links may end directly at the node, or at a node nested inside the subgrapher. The latter are called the tree external intergraph links. If includeIntergraphLinks is false and includeTreeExtIntergraphLinks is false, it calculates the branch by taking only normal links into account. If includeIntergraphLinks is false but includeTreeExtIntergraphLinks is true, it calculates the branch by taking the tree external intergraph links at subgraphers into account, and if a node belongs to the branch that is not directly contained in this grapher, it takes the ancestor node which is directly contained in this grapher into account. This is particular suitable if that ancestor is a collapsed subgrapher, because the tree external intergraph links end visually directly at the collapsed subgrapher.
    If includeIntergraphLinks is true and includeTreeExtIntergraphLinks is false, it calculates the branch by taking normal links and intergraph links into account, that end directly at the nodes. If includeIntergraphLinks is true and includeTreeExtIntergraphLinks is true, it calculates the branch by taking normal links and intergraph links into account, including those tree external intergraph links that end inside subgraphers.
    
    Parameters:
    
    node - The start node of the branch. This node does not change its visibility.
    
    startLevel - The start level of the branch.
    
    endLevel - The end level of the branch. If negative, it is treated as no end level.
    
    visible - Whether to set the branch visible or invisible.
    
    origin - Whether to calculate the branch starting at the node or ending at the node.
    
    includeIntergraphLinks - Whether to include intergraph links when calculating the branch.
    
    includeTreeExtIntergraphLinks - Whether to include tree external intergraph links at subgraphers when calculating the branch.
