Diagrams

The Diagram tool allows you to create, customize, and export visual diagrams directly within Lygos.

🧱 Insert Shapes

  • Shapes are grouped in Shape Libraries (e.g., basic, flowchart, network).
  • Expand/Collapse libraries by clicking their name.
  • To add a shape:
    • Click to insert, or
    • Drag and drop the shape onto the canvas.

🎛️ Format Panel

Located on the right side, the Format Panel is context-sensitive, meaning it adapts based on what is selected:

  • Style shapes: Fill color, border, shadows, etc.
  • Connectors: Line types, arrows, routing options.
  • Text: Font, size, alignment.
  • Layout: Position, size, rotation, layering.

📤 Export Options

Export your diagram when finished:

  • PNG – for use as images in reports or presentations.
  • SVG – for scalable and editable vector graphics.
