This page explains all the features available to users through the graph UI. The following features will be explained:
Graph display styles
In any graph type, users have the option to choose from various display styles that determine how the issues and links between them are presented. To change the visual style, simply click on the display style button located in the graph navigation.
Network graph
The network graph represents Jira issues as nodes and Jira links as connections between them.
Direction graph
In the direction graph, the view is more structured. It displays issue dependencies based on their link direction flow, with parent/outward issues on top and child/inward issues below.
Hierarchy graph
Here issues are displayed in a levelled dependency tree according to issue hierarchy. The hierarchy can be customised on the Issue Hierarchy configuration page. If not configured, the graph will follow the deafult issue hierarchy. In the example below you can see that the default hierarchy has been customised and the ‘Task’ issue type has been granted seniority over the ‘Story’ issue type, while other issue types have regained their default rank.
Graph filters
Data displayed in the graph can be filtered by a number of variables:
link types
issue types
JQL query
The Quick filters button has a selection of pre-configured JQL-based filters. See the https://stagil.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SIMFJ/pages/2171830294/Administration#Context-and-project-configuration page to check out how to configure quick filters.
