The graph shows the relationships between layers. A layer L1 depends on a layer L2 if there is at least one asset in L1 that depends on at least one asset in L2.
If the model is "clean"
- layers above only depend on layers below
- layers below only depend on layer above
- there may be internal dependencies within layers
That is not mandatory; but projects that do not adhere to the rule are harder to understand and to explain.
When you click on one layer, the graph gets colour:
|
deep blue |
directly related layers above |
|
green |
the reference layer |
|
bright red |
directly related layers below |
|
grey |
unrelated |
