Neighborhood sometimes shows nothing

Question

I have a graph with about 50 groups, each of them containing several nodes (avg 8). The groups habe connections, and also the nodes.

When I select a goup with all the nodes within, sometimes the neighborhood-windows is empty even if there are connections to other elements. Other groups with their elements work quite well.

What may I doing wrong?

Answer 1

The number of elements that are displayed in the neighborhood and the other context views is limited to 50 nodes and 100 edges initially. However, you can raise those limits using "File" -> "Preferences", tab "Display", settings "Maximum Number of Nodes" and "Maximum Number of Edges". Please note, that lots of elements in the context views may significantly slow down yEd.
