The Graph page keeps a tab strip above the workspace so you can hold several graphs, queries, and views open at once and switch between them without losing your place. Graph tab strip with a tab being renamed

The tab strip

The strip sits directly above the graph selector and query bar and spans the full width of the page. Each tab shows its own label; the active tab is highlighted. The last remaining tab cannot be closed, so the workspace always has at least one tab open.

Renaming a tab

A tab is labeled with the graph it has selected, or New tab when no graph is selected yet. Click the pencil icon to replace that with your own name:
  • Press Enter or click away to commit the new name.
  • Press Esc to cancel.
  • Clear the field to fall back to the graph name.
Because labels can repeat (two tabs can point at the same graph), custom names are the easiest way to tell similar tabs apart.

What each tab remembers

Switching tabs restores the tab’s view, not just its query. Every tab keeps its own:
  • Selected graph and query text
  • Active results tab (Graph, Table, Metadata, or Schema)
  • Canvas viewport (pan and zoom) and current selection
  • Layout mode and direction, plus the animation, pin, and dim toggles
  • Search and filter panel state, Graph Info panel state, and Chat panel state
  • Open Customize Style panel
The Graph and Schema views track these separately, so pinning the schema layout does not pin the graph layout in the same tab. Chat history is also per tab, so two tabs on the same graph keep independent conversations.

Persistence

Tabs are stored in your browser’s local storage and are scoped to the active connection. They survive a page reload, and switching connections gives you that connection’s own set of tabs. Closing a tab discards the state stored for it.

Max Tabs

The number of tabs is capped by Settings → Browser Settings → User Experience → Max Tabs, which accepts a value between 4 and 10 and defaults to 8. At the cap the New tab button is disabled and its tooltip points you at the setting. Lowering the limit never closes tabs you already have open.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click New tab at the end of the tab strip, then pick a graph in the new tab. The original tab keeps its graph, query, canvas position, and selection.
Yes. Tabs are saved in local storage per connection, so reloading restores the strip. Live canvas state such as the viewport and selection is restored from the tab’s saved metadata.
Between 4 and 10, depending on the Max Tabs setting in Settings → Browser Settings → User Experience. The default is 8.
Yes. Click the pencil icon on the tab, type a name, and press Enter. Clearing the field restores the graph name as the label.
No. Each tab keeps its own conversation, even when two tabs are open on the same graph.
