  2. Check the General settings match your requirements:

    • Charting

      In the charting section you can see:

      • Charting scheme

      • Chart Style - For Timeline charts you can select to separate simultaneous events by milliseconds to make them more visible, and apply this option to all chart items or just to those added after this point.

    • Expand

      You can choose how many items to bring back when expanding items.

    • Common Neighbors

      You can choose only to allow common neighbors that are neighbors of all the selected items.

    • Find Path

      When looking for connections between items, you can restrict the found connections to a direction, specify whether to just return the shortest path, and how many items can be between the two items (up to a limit of 10).
