There are some general rules that can be used for browsing any type of graphical view.
By default,"Reuse" is turned on for each graphical view. When set, that graphical view window presents information about any entity that is left clicked on in any view outside of that graphical view window. This permits quick and effortless gathering of information about whatever you want to learn
