Graph References
This is a feature in Comfigurator 3.9.5 which makes it easier to trace how Responses are used in Comfigurator
Right Click on any Response and select \"Graph References\"
This opens a new window which shows the connections between the Responses and what triggered it as well as what other responses are activated by it
This helps to troubleshoot and debug the programming of Comfort
Cursor over a Node to see Tooltip
Double-click Response Node to make it the Target Response.
A Response node is shown with the lamp icon. Note that only a Response can be a target
Double Click the Target Response (in blue) to Edit the Response
Select a Response from the Responses page to change the Target Response
The boxes are colour coded as follows: the Target Response is in Blue, other Responses are in Green, and other events, ie not Responses like zones, time programs, outputs etc are in White. This helps to identify other Responses which can become the new target by double-clicking on it.
Graph References works on Responses, Zones , Counters, Flags, and Alarms

Awesome, I like it.

Nice work. I can see there is huge scope to enhance this area too!
Can\'t see how you present this right now but would be good if there is an option to open this in a new free-floating window rather the main workspace and then when you double click one of the boxes it opens the relevant configuration section in the main workspace.

Looks really good - great view of the relationships between elements

Hi All,
This is going to make some of those more complicated rules easier to track down.
Keep up the good work.

I am finding a problem with the \'Show Reference\' command on the Counter tab. I have counters configured to CBus groups, and would like to see where they have been used. However, on the counter page, if the \'Show Status\' box has been checked, the \'right click\' action on a specific counter is very intermittent - sometimes it shows the dialog and other times, it just creates a small empty box. IF the dialog does show, clicking \'Show Reference\' immediately throws an \'Unhandled Exception\'. This is consistent on any counter, whether applied to a C Bus group or not. If the \'Show Status\' box is unchecked, then the \'Show Reference\' dialog works correctly. I\'m attaching a screen shot of the unhandled reference. The Comfigurator version is 3.10.2.0

We verified this and should be able to fix this
In the meantime if you uncheck the show status box, there should be no exception

I started configuration based on a default Template and worked over it.
Based on this (References) I just noticed that some of my zones (9 and 10) were blue and went after the References (to my surprise as I thought I head written over what was preexisting).
I found references to Responses \"TwoWaySwitchOff\" and \"TwoWaySwitchOn\" and \"TwoWaySwitchOff01\" and \"TwoWaySwitchOn01\" which mess with OUTPUT1 ...
Something totally unwanted on what I thought was a \"clean\" configuration.
To correct it I would have to wipe responses 217 and 218 ...
But, will I need them later ?
So, I am getting into new troubles. And just trying to start clean ...
And wandered to what extent that could go on with Configuration items without my knowledge (limited of course) of the many hidden details in Configurator.
Can you please provide some guidance on the value of templates (which I assumed a good base) and how to deal with pre-existing dependencies (such as responses 127 and 128).
Thank you.

What you can do is go to Edit > Unfix All Responses, then Delete Unfixed and Unreferenced Responses
This will remove all unused responses so the remaining are in Blue
If you want to keep some unused references then Fix the Response numbers (they will appear in Bold)
There is no point in keeping unused responses. You can always vopy responses from a new template
This will clean up the Graphical references you you see only the ones that are used

The \"Delete Unfixed and Unreferenced Responses\" surely took a lot and left a \"to the bones\" Response List.
But, how do I copy responses from a new template ?
Not \"finger and eye\" copy, but by \"easy\" copy
