+  Graph Visualizer allows you to visualize the graphs present in the database.
+---
+
+A **Graph** in ArangoDB is a powerful data structure that models relationships between entities. The **Graph Visualizer** provides an interactive interface to explore these connections, enabling users to traverse edges, inspect vertices, and intuitively understand the underlying data structure.
+
+> 💡 **Note:** Graph creation is **not** performed within the Graph Visualizer. Graphs must be created in the **Graphs** section of the application. Once a graph is created there, it will automatically appear in the Graph Visualizer, ready for exploration and visualization.
+
+## 1.Data Augmentation
+
+While the Graph Visualizer is primarily designed for exploring graph data, you can also create and modify nodes and edges directly from the canvas.
+
+**A.Add New Nodes (Vertices):** 
+  Right-click anywhere on the canvas and select **"Create Node"**. A dropdown will appear showing all related document collections. Select the desired collection (vertex type), provide a unique identifier or name, and create the node. The node will then appear in the visualization.
+
+- **Step-1 : Right Click On Graph Area**
+{{< image src="../../images/1a-Create_Node.png" >}}
+
+- **Step-2 : Select Create Node**
+{{< image src="../../images/1b-Create_Node.png" >}}
+
+- **Step-3 : Select the desired Node Type and click on Create**
+{{< image src="../../images/1c-Create_Node.png" >}}
+
+**B.Add New Edges (Relationships):**  
+  Right-click on the canvas and select **"Create Edge"**. Choose the edge collection from the dropdown, provide a name for the edge, and correctly set the `_from` and `_to` fields by selecting source and target nodes. The edge will be created and visualized between the two nodes.
+
+- **Step-1 : Right Click On Graph Area**
+{{< image src="../../images/2a-Create_Edge.png" >}}
+
+- **Step-2 : Select Create Edge**
+{{< image src="../../images/2b-Create_Edge.png" >}}
+
+- **Step-3 : Select the desired Edge from drop down and enter valid details in '_from' and '_to' and click Create**
+{{< image src="../../images/2c-Create_Edge.png" >}}
+
+**C.Delete Nodes or Edges:**  
+  Select a node or edge and right-click to access the **"Delete"** option. This action removes the selected element from both the graph and the database.
+
+- **Select Node and Right click**
+{{< image src="../../images/3a-Delete_Node.png" >}}
+
+- **Select Edge and Right click**
+{{< image src="../../images/3b-Delete_Edge.png" >}}
+
+**D.Properties of Nodes or Edges:**  
+  If You Select a node or edge a Pop-In will appear and display the properties of selected Node or Edge.
+
+- **Select Edge to display the Properties**
+{{< image src="../../images/4a-Properties-of-Edge.png" >}}
+
+- **Select Node to display the Properties**
+{{< image src="../../images/4-Properties-of-Node.png" >}}
+
+## 2.Graph Visualization
+
+The core function of the Graph Visualizer is to provide an intuitive canvas for exploring graph structures.
+
+- **List All Graphs:**  
+  View and select any graph from the list of connected graphs, including **General Graphs**, **Smart Graphs**, **Satellite Graphs**, **Enterprise Graphs**, and **Knowledge Graphs**.
+{{< image src="../../images/1_List All Graphs.png" >}}
+
+- **Select and Load a Graph:**  
+  Upon selecting a graph, its nodes and edges are visualized. The visualization includes a summary of the vertex and edge collections involved, providing a clear view of the data model and relationships.
+{{< image src="../../images/2_Load_Graph.png" >}}
+
+- **Dynamic Graph Rendering:**  
+  In addition to static graphs, you can dynamically render graphs using the **New Query** or **Saved Queries** options. This allows visualizing results from custom AQL queries on demand.
+  - **Dynamic Graph By using New-Query**
+{{< image src="../../images/3a_DynamicGraphby_NewQuery.png" >}}
+  - **Dynamic Graph By using Saved-Query**
+{{< image src="../../images/DynamicGraph_By_Saved_Query.png" >}}
+
+## 3.Search & Filter Data
+
+The top-left section of the Graph Visualizer includes powerful search and query tools for interactive exploration.
+
+##### 🔍 Search
+User have to select one of the type of vertex from the provided dropdown and by entering the property name or field  name user can able to fetch the data.
+
+- **Step-1 : Click on Search Icon to get Pop-Up**
+{{< image src="../../images/1a_search.png" >}}
+- **Step-2 : Select Vertex Type from DropDown**
+{{< image src="../../images/1b_search.png" >}}
+- **Step-3 : Enter the DataValue or fields toget the required Data**
+{{< image src="../../images/1c_Search Response.png" >}}
+
+##### 💾 Saved Queries
+Lists all previously saved AQL queries.Each entry supports **Run**, **Copy**, and
+**Delete** actions for ease of reuse.
+- **Click on Search Icon and Select Saved Queries**
+{{< image src="../../images/2a_savedquery.png" >}}
+
+##### ✏️ New Query
+Write and execute custom AQL queries within the visualizer.Results are rendered
+directly onto the graph canvas.You can save queries with a **custom name and description**,
+making them available under **Saved Queries**.
+- **Click on Search Icon and Select New Query**
+{{< image src="../../images/3a_new_Query.png" >}}
+- **Response of the NewQuery**
+{{< image src="../../images/3b_NewQuery_response.png" >}}
+
+## 4.Visual Customization
+
+Click the **navigation icon** at the bottom-right of the canvas to reveal styling and customization tools.
+
+##### 🏷️ Display Fields
+Choose which attributes or fields from the document to display as node or edge labels.
+- **Select Node to Display Fields**
+{{< image src="../../images/4-Properties-of-Node.png" >}}
+
+##### 🎨 Styling Options 
+Modify the **color** and **opacity** of selected nodes or edges for emphasis or categorization.
+{{< image src="../../images/2_Styling Options.png" >}}
+
+##### 🔗 Edge-Specific Options
+- Adjust **line thickness** to represent weight or importance.
+- Set **arrowhead styles** for source and target, choosing from different shapes.
+These options are especially helpful when working with dense or complex graphs, making key elements stand out.
+{{< image src="../../images/3_Edge-Specific Options.png" >}}
+
+## 5.Layouts and Navigation Tools
+
+Graph layout and navigation tools help users manage large and complex graphs effectively.
+
+- **Mini-map:**  
+  View a compact overview of the graph and navigate quickly.
+{{< image src="../../images/1_minimap.png" >}}
+
+- **Zoom Controls:**  
+  Use the buttons to zoom in/out, or manually set a specific zoom percentage.
+
+- **Fit to Screen:**  
+  Automatically resize and center the graph to fit the visible canvas.
+
+- **Re-run Layout:**  
+  Rearrange nodes and edges to apply a fresh layout for improved clarity.
+
+- **Layout Algorithms:**  
+  Switch between layout styles such as:
+{{< image src="../../images/5_Layout Algorithms.png" >}}
+
+These features allow better spatial understanding of node clusters, hierarchies,
+and relationship flows.
