Usage
Index page
Navigate to /admin/content/dependency-graph to see a table of the 100 most recently changed nodes, each with a link to its graph.
Also accessible via Administration > Content > Dependency Graph.
Graph for a specific node

The graph displays the selected node as the root and recursively visualizes all referenced entities and their relationships.

| Click a node | Open entity details and relationships in the sidebar |
| Zoom in / Zoom out | Scale the graph (1.25× / 0.8×) |
| Fit | Zoom to fit all visible nodes |
| Fullscreen | Toggle fullscreen mode |
| Entity type filter | Filter nodes by entity type (root node always visible) |
| Drag | Pan the canvas |
| Scroll | Zoom |
