Multi-Graph

Tutorial Exercise 4.3: Multi-Graph: Working with different Graphs simultaneously

uDraw(Graph) does not only allow a user to have many views (base windows) to one graph, but also to load different graphs at the same time which are visualized in different base windows. Before working in multi-graph mode, be sure to have at least two open views (base windows) to a graph, because otherwise there is no second window and loading a new graph in one window will eliminate the previous graph there. To load a second graph, simply use the File/Open... menu in one of the views. This will load the new graph only in the window where the load operation was executed. The other views are not affected. So from a technical point of view, the window where the graph was loaded is disconnected from the other views to act independently. After loading a new graph, interactions in this base window will not have an effect on the other windows.

Of course, the window with the new graph may have its own views, too, and so on. Keep in mind that the maximal number of open base windows is 64 and that multi-view and multi-graph is an expensive feature (think about the required memory to store large graph areas), so do not overstrain your computer with too many graphs and windows.
