Scripting

QtConceptMapDemo allows scripting:

• create_new_edge
• create_new_node
• move
• set_mode
• toggle_arrow_head
• toggle_arrow_tail
• unselect

--command "set_mode(edit); create_new_node(center, true, 0, 0); unselect(center); create_new_node(from, false, 0, -50); create_new_node(to, false, 0, 50); create_new_edge(relation); move(relation, 200, 0); toggle_arrow_head(); toggle_arrow_tail()" //!OCLINT

create_new_edge

create_new_node

Syntax:

`create_new_node([text on node],[center node true/false],[x coordinat],[y coordinat])`

• [text on node]: text to put on node. May not contain commas
• [center node true/false]: set to trueif the node is a center node, use false otherwise. A QtConceptMap may only have one center node
• [x coordinat]: position towards the right, can be any integer, center has coordinat (0,0)
• [y coordinat]: position towards the bottom, can be any integer, center has coordinat (0,0)

./QtConceptMapDemo --command "set_mode(edit); create_new_node(not a center node, false, 0, 0)"

./QtConceptMapDemo --command "set_mode(edit); create_new_node(a center node, true, 0, 0)"

move

set_mode

set_mode allows to set the mode of the QtConceptMap:

• set_mode(edit): edit mode, modify the text and number of nodes and edges
• set_mode(rate): rate mode, assign a rating to the nodes and edges
• set_mode(uninitialized): uninitialized mode, can do neither

set_mode(edit)

./QtConceptMapDemo --command "set_mode(edit); create_new_node(hello, false, 0, 0)"

set_mode(edit)

./QtConceptMapDemo --command "set_mode(rate); create_new_node(hello, false, 0, 0)"

set_mode(uninitialized)

./QtConceptMapDemo --command "set_mode(uninitialized); create_new_node(hello, false, 0, 0)"

toggle_arrow_head

toggle_arrow_tail

unselect

Unselect a node or edge by name

./QtConceptMapDemo --command "set_mode(edit); create_new_node(my name, false, 0, 0); unselect(my name);
