Introduction

  • Available in ≥ 2.15
  • The options Highlight Callees Graph and Highlight Path were available in previous releases of CAST Imaging as Show Callee and Show Path. In addition a new option called Highlight Callers Graph has been implemented and added in the contextual menu with the other two options. These three options are enabled on all scopes and levels in Imaging. See User Guide - GUI - Menus and Icons.

The Highlight options function as follows:

  • The Highlight Callees Graph option highlights all the immediate callees (and also their respective callees) that are called by the selected object (arrow out/pointing away from the selected object).
  • The Highlight Callers Graph option highlights all the immediate callers (and also their respective callers) that are calling the selected object (arrow in/arrow pointing towards the selected object).
  • The Highlight path option highlights all paths based on either Callee or Caller links between selected objects - if a path exists. 

Accessing the feature

These three options are enabled on all scopes and levels in CAST Imaging via the right click contextual menu:
