Using the Target Graph

Controlling Graph Complexity

Controlling how many dependencies the target graph displays with the Display Dependencies menu button, discussed in the previous section, helps control graph complexity. Other mechanisms for controlling the complexity and appearance of the target graph include:

•Choose one of the "Hide" commands from the "Graph" menu. These commands allow you to hide selected nodes, children of selected nodes, or unselected nodes from the graph.

•Use the "Zoom" commands on the "Graph" menu to make the graph nodes larger or smaller.

Building a Selected Target

To build a target from the target graph:

1.Select the target on the target graph.

2.Select the Build button, use the popup menu to access the "Build" command or choose "Target: Build" from the menu.

Starting Your Configured Editor

When you have source or include file dependencies displayed on your target graph, you can start your editor preloaded with a file by either

•double-clicking on the source or include file

•selecting the file and choosing "Open File" from the popup menu or "File: Open" from the main menu

•selecting the file, then selecting the "Editor" icon from the toolbar
