5. View object graphs

References are types of attributes that let you create references to other objects. Information about a specific object can be useful, but viewing its relations and dependencies is even better. You can do it by using a graphical viewer.

Object schema graph

To view a graph for your object schema:

1. At the top-right, next to the object schema configuration, select Graph. 
2. You'll see the object schema graph. It lets you see how all object types are knitted together. 

Object type graph

To view a graph for your object type:

1. Select an object type, and click Graph next to the object type configuration. 
2. You'll see the object type graph. It should help you see your object type's relations with other object types. You can select other object types to see their graphs. 

Object graph

To view a graph for your object:
