The Graph toolbar is an overlay shown on the Graph canvas. It’s focused on searching, selecting, and modifying graph elements. Graph toolbar and overlay controls The search input supports matching against:
  • Node/edge property values (string prefix match)
  • IDs
  • Relationship type (edges)
  • Labels (nodes)
Keyboard behavior:
  • Enter: jump/select the highlighted suggestion
  • Arrow Up/Down: move through suggestions
  • Esc: clear search
Selecting a suggestion zooms/fits the canvas around the matched element.

Show All

Hiding node labels or relationship types from the Graph Info lists only affects what is drawn, not what was returned. The Show All button restores every hidden label and relationship type in one click. It is disabled when nothing is hidden, and it is available to read-only users as well, since revealing elements is not an edit.

Element actions (create / delete)

When the user is not Read-Only, the toolbar supports:
  • Add node
  • Add edge (typically only enabled when two nodes are selected)
  • Delete selected element(s)
These actions open additional UI (e.g., the Add panel) and/or call graph API routes.

Layout & limit warnings

The toolbar can display warnings when:
  • The current query hit a result limit
  • The configured limit changed relative to the last query
