The **Source Overview** allows you to quickly create a Visual Representation of a Source. This is especially useful for checking whether all Relationships are defined. This will not show anything when you have only one object or no relationships defined.

## Screen overview

### Main Toolbar

The main toolbar has these options:

- Show All: to show the full model
- Shortest Path Between 2 Objects: to generate a shortest path option between 2 objects
- Inspect Single Object: to investigate 1 single objects (and it’s surrounding objects)
- Object: show only objects on the canvas
- Attribute: show also the attributes on the canvas
- Compare with Previous Release: make a comparison between this source release and the previous one
- Generate: generate the model based on the current selections
- [] (fullscreen): to enlarge the screen.
- Object (A) Dropdown (only available with ‘shortest path’ or ‘inspect single object’ selected): the object where you want to start your path from
- Object B Dropdown (only available with shortest path selected): the object where you want to end your path
- Depth (only available with ‘inspect single object’ selected): the depth to see around your selected object.

### Canvas options

On the canvas (when you have generated something) you get some extra options

- Disable/Enable Physics: this enables or disables the auto-layout of the object across the canvas.  Disabling this will stop the objects from ‘moving around’ on the canvas.
- Legend: This will show a small legend explaining the different icons and colored lines on the canvas.

## Show All

With ‘Show All’ and ‘object’ selected,  click ‘generate’ to see a visualization of the complete source:

If you select ‘attribute' and click ‘generate’, the attributes will also be shown.

### Shortest Path Options

The Shortest Path Option shows the shortest RelationShip between 2 selected Objects, for e.g.

The Inspect Single Object Option shows selected Object, and its RelationShips to a certain Level (Depth). for e.g. Depth 1 means the RelationShips to the requested Object itself :

The Compare Option will show the differences between the previous Source Release and the current one. New and re-Enabled RelationShips will be shown in Green, Disabled and Removed RelationShips in Red.

The Legend will show the different Colours and Icons used on the Visualization, turning “Disable physics” on will prevent Objects from 'moving around' on the Canvas ...
