Flow Chart
Overview
The Flow Chart view provides a visual representation of object data mappings within a Grid Studio project.
It displays how objects are connected through Map Inputs and Map Outputs, making it easier to understand how data signals are sent and received between objects.
The Flow Chart helps users analyze signal paths and understand relationships between connected objects.
Opening the Flow Chart
The Flow Chart view is opened from the Inspector.
Objects that support Map Inputs or Map Outputs provide a Flow Chart icon in the Inspector header. Clicking this icon opens the Flow Chart view for that object.
The Flow Chart can also be opened for connections, allowing users to inspect how objects are linked through data mappings.
Usage
The Flow Chart view can be used to visualize:
Which objects send data through Map Outputs
Which objects receive data through Map Inputs
How objects are connected through mapping connections
This makes it easier to analyze how data flows between different parts of a project.
Current Limitations
The Flow Chart currently visualizes object data mappings only.
It does not represent other systems within Grid Studio, including:
Modifiier nodes
Workflow actions or events
Script-based data manipulation
Purpose
As projects grow larger, signal paths between objects can become difficult to track. The Flow Chart provides a quick visual overview that helps users analyze connections and troubleshoot data routing between objects.
