I basically have two questions around Bloom.
Q1: once a graph has been displayed, I would like to execute another cypher query. I would like to select a set of connected nodes and just work on those in cleared scene.
Example: Let's say have a graph with 50 nodes displayed and I want to now look at only these 3, or 5, or 8, etc. that are connected in a chain.. I would need to have an embedded cypher command that accepts a variable number of params, or do I enter a single param as delimited list then split into values and... ?? what does this cypher look like?
Q2: obviously before I would display this new chain of nodes I would need to clear scene from within my embedded cypher. I only want to see my newly requested nodes so how is this done?
thanks and sorry for the long text..
I don't think you can clear the scene with Cypher, you can use "Dismiss Other Nodes" in Bloom command line or context menu.
In the saved cypher you can use a string parameter, e.g. a-b-c and then use WITH split($param, "-") as parts which gives you a list of 3 strings: a, b, c that you then can use in your query
In cypher actions you get passed in the selected nodes
yeah.. that's what I thought.. thanks man.. I am as you said, using the delimiter mechanism.. thanks man for helping me out on this.. thanks!
