As I said in another reply, the essence of understanding complex data is creating multiple user-controlled views. The graph world would be a step in the wrong direction. > So the (non-urgent) issue I see is how could cyclic graphs be included > in a Leo outline that was mostly DAG, in some way that Leo knows that > from this node and beyond cycles may occur. I said previously that limiting the expansion of nodes is a good first step. We could also have directives that limit expansion to n number of visits. But I remain skeptical that the kind of graph you show really is worth viewing in an outline. It seems seems more than plausible that representing graphs in a Leo tree is all that is needed. No need to argue further until the unified node world is much farther along. Perhaps somebody will produce a plugin that will show the true power of general graphs :-) Edward --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
