The Knowledge Graph is a visual representation of all of your Rems and how they are connected. This can be useful to get a broad view of your notes and of how they relate to each other. It can also be used to navigate between your Rems in a more visually interesting way.

The Knowledge Graph is a Pro-only feature.

Opening the Knowledge Graph

To open the Knowledge Graph, press Ctrl+K to open the Omnibar, then select View Global Graph.

  • In the Knowledge Graph (or Global Graph), you will see all of the Rems in the Knowledge Base and their connections.

You can also open a Graph with a specific Rem set as the center (a local Graph). To do this, type /view graph in the Rem you want to set as the center.

Note: You can also set any Node as the center while navigating the Knowledge Graph by right-clicking it and selecting Set as Center.

Right-click on a Node in the Knowledge Graph to show a menu with more options.

Nodes

The circles in the Graph are called nodes, and each one represents a Rem. The size of a node increases with the amount of connections it has with other Rems and its color represents its type.

All of the Node types and their colors.

Note: Descriptors don't appear in the Knowledge Graph, but their descendants do.

Edges

The connections between each node are called edges. Each type of connection is represented by a different line color.

Navigating the Knowledge Graph

You can move around in the Knowledge Graph by:

  • Click and drag an empty area to pan the graph.

  • Use the Mouse Scroll Wheel to zoom in or zoom out.

There are multiple ways to Interact with the individual nodes in the graph:

  • Click: open Rem in a new pane.

  • Click and drag: move the node around. Releasing the node will lock it in place, preventing it from being moved by the Graph's effects.

  • Ctrl+Alt+click (Cmd+Opt+click on a Mac): unlock/lock Node in place.

  • Alt+click (Opt+click on a Mac) a node while seeing all rems: summon neighbor Nodes to move closer.

  • Alt+click (Opt+click on a Mac) while having a Rem set as Center: expand/collapse neighbors

  • Right-click: open a menu with other commands
