Introduction
Owlograf draws the Dolfin projects you keep in Agrafe as an interactive graph: concepts, properties and how they connect, laid out the way Agrafe’s Graph pane shows them, with the whole window to work in.
You can explore your own projects, the ones shared with you, and public ones; preview a box’s neighbours with the lens; arrange the layout; and, once you allow it, create, rename and edit concepts and properties right on the graph.
The Dolfin language has its own documentation at www.dolfin.fr/docs. Nothing here repeats it.
What is covered
- Signing in with your Agrafe account, and allowing editing.
- Projects: your projects, shared ones, and public ones.
- Reading the graph: what boxes and arrows mean.
- Moving around: pan, zoom, center.
- The lens: a box and its direct neighbours in a popup.
- Previous and Next: step through files and back through your jumps.
- Layout and snap to grid: arrange boxes and keep the arrangement.
- Editing on the graph: create, rename, edit and delete.
- Working alongside Agrafe: live updates and jumping to the source.
- Keyboard, mouse and touch: every gesture on one page.

Conventions

- Menu and button names are written exactly as they appear in the app.
- On a Mac, read ⌘ wherever this book says Ctrl.
