Stylesheet Management ​

Introduction ​

Stylesheet Management allows you to modify the appearance of your graph results based on the label of the element (vertex, edge). Each element label found on your graph database will automatically be assigned a default stylesheet that will differentiate it from other elements. This is also applicable when new elements are introduced to the graph as the data model for your database is automatically updated. For reference, see Data Model Management. To modify an element's stylesheet, you can find the element from the Connection List sidebar by drilling into the Data Model and clicking on Edit Stylesheet for the element. Alternatively from the Data Model Explorer, when focusing on an element, you will be given an option to edit the element's stylesheet. Changes to an element's stylesheet are automatically applied to any opened graph results visualization.
